This is how a heart breaks,
this is how my soul aches.
With every step, with every beat,
I'm wishing you were close to me.

Baby you're so far away,
and I can't take another day.
I count your steps as you walk from me,
but in my heart you'll always be.

And when the sun sets below,
I just want you to know.
I miss you and I need you back,
and without you I'm outta whack.

So give me a hug and hold me close,
you're the one I need the most.
When you're not here I cry so much,
and I'm always longing for your warm touch.

Baby I need you by my side,
I need your help and I need your guide.
But when I'm crying, alone and sad,
I hear you voice telling me 'don't be mad'.

I hear you voice and feel your touch,
and I begin to miss you so much.
I'm looking forward to a time when we can be near,
to living a life with you minus the fear.

And I hear you tell me, 'Though we're apart,
No need to worry and this was never your fault.'
I hang onto your words everyday.
as I miss you in every way...
