Dreaming, Wishing, Longing

I wish I could be there
on your darkest night
to hold you and comfort you
with all of my might

I wish I could be there
to share in your sadness
lift you up when you're down
turn mourning to gladness

I wish I could be there
to see your excitement
the gleam in your eyes
it'd give me fulfillment

But baby I'm with you
in the confines of our hearts
though we're miles away
we're never apart

I dream of the day
when I'll see your face
studying each feature
you're not common place

I dream of the day
when I look in your eyes
what will I see there?
pure truth or just lies?

I dream of the day
when mountains will fall
heaven split open
at your single call

My dreams are with you
in the confines of our hearts
though we're miles away
we're never apart

I long for you so
every minutes it seems
my stomach is in knots
what does this mean?

I long for you so
and constantly wonder
what your touch feels like
earthquake, fire or thunder?

I long for you so
your lips pressing mine
our body's so close
hands intertwined

While I long, I am with you
in the confines of our hearts
though we're miles away
we're never apart

If only by wishing and dreaming
and longing sufficiently
I'd have you by my side
forever with me
