This Distance

If I could be there tonight

Hold you, make everything right

Kiss you, love you, make you mine

If I could, I'd waste no time.

If I could look into your eyes

If you could hold me as I cried

If I could, I would, I'd be there now

Some way, some time, some place, somehow.

Run my fingers down your cheek

Bite my lip, unable to speak

Wrap my arms around you tight

And hold you, love you through the night

Laugh with you, study your smile

I'd run, I'd walk, I'd crawl a mile

Just to see you, to hear your voice

This distance, my love, is not my choice

If there was some way that we could meet

I promise, my love, I'd be there in a heartbeat

Being separated from you is so very hard

So close to you...

And yet, so far...
