So close
But yet so far away
You are my light
You're there reason I wake up everyday.
Behind my smile,
You see the tears that no one else sees.
You are my heart
You are the tune my heart sings.
I haven't seen those pretty blue eyes
In such a long time.
And sometimes
I don't think I can make it.
But before I jump off the cliff
Or swallow the bottle clean,
I hear your voice.
You're image stops me.
One day I'll wake up
And maybe you'll be right there.
Without a thought, I'll reach out.
I'll find the proof with a touch of your hair.
If you promise to come back
I promise I'll wait for you.
To be with you once more,
I'd sacrifice everything I ever knew.
Nothing in the world can compare to you.
And you know nothing else could ever be as true.
~~I'll wait forever for you~~

Hm.. This almost sounds like the prelude to the song "I Will Follow You Into The Dark" by Deathcab for Cutie, if there was a prelude.
A very touching, sesual piece. Outstanding. -
