I Reach For You

In my dreams I reach for you.

You're never in my arms.

I'm unsure of what to do.

My heart sounds an alarm.


I'd give my hand for your kiss.

Just a moment of love.

All the world I wouldn't miss.

Fly to you like a dove.


You'll always be out of reach.

Never to hold my hand.

A painful lesson to teach.

Life cares not for my plan.


Yet I hold you in my heart now.

A beauty rare and pained.

I'd heal you if I knew how.

My love will never wane.


Let me embrace my only.

Our pain would fade away.

Yet I must remain lonely.

For she is gone today.
