Days feel like years
Nights feel like centuries.
The loneliness creeps in like a stormy day.
The feeling inside is as quiet as can be, crying out loud without a sound.
Weeping without tears, feeling like nothing can be worse.

Then I think of you and close my eyes and feel the warmth of your arms.
The love you give me is like being submerged in the ocean,
it is undefined and infinite.
As big as the sea yet as simple as sand.

I calm down, knowing that everything will get better.
Trusting you is what makes me strong as a rock.
It keeps me living life and enjoying the little things that no one sees.
The lonely nights turn into nights of love and comfort.

You are all I need... You are all I need...
When I feel lonely, I sit in bed and just close my eyes and talk to you,
because I know you hear me, because I know you care, because I know you love.
I wait patiently for your answer...
I know my prayers will be answered if I trust in you.

When i'm lonely, I look to you, and feel peace.

Because when I feel as lonely as a feather...

You are my best friend.
