Half the world away
or hand in hand today,
I can only think of you.
Every little thing
about you screams perfect
and everything about us
feels right, inside my heart.
You and me, together
is more natural than any sunrise,
more beautiful than any rose in bloom.
And though I try,
my words will always fall short.
Only our kiss, embrace, our hands held tight
can tell the story of what will be our love.
Though we're thousands of miles apart
I still hear your whispers in the wind,
feel you all around me,
the kiss of the sun your touch.
And when I sleep
your gentle face
your carefree laugh
are always there to welcome me to my dreams.
Yet falling asleep
is always the hardest part of my day.
Lying awake in an empty bed
yearning for you to be with me
to fit perfectly in my arms,
the way only you can.
I yearn for you
to make me whole.
But you want me the same way
and were you with me tonight
falling asleep would be even harder.
And for now i can only wait
and count the moments
until I'm yours again.
