In The Distance

I'm closing my eyes with hopes for a vision,

A dream where I'm wide awake

Far off in the distance...

He notes my existence and

gives what I am able to take.

Sounds fill the shore where the sandpipers play

All songs are stilled with a hush...

Was that You strolling by and did brush...

Right up next to me,

I barely can breathe,

For the hope that this heart

may be carried away ...

I am fumbling for the right thing to say,

I am tumbling down

where I thought not to stay.

Will I find this passionate song...

Where the dream in my heart

will someday live on?

Aware that I'm taking a risk....

For the hope that you'll turn and

you'll tenderly kiss...

Right up next to me,

where you thought not to be...

Far off in the distance...

I note your existence and

give what I'm able to take.
