Reality

Absence

The stars are too hot
And the moon too far
The space between us
Can't be reached by car.

Those things I cant give you
They're far beyond my reach
But I promise I'll be waiting
Until the next time we will meet.

The heart they say,
Grows fonder with absence.
But my body aches
For your very presence.

I cannot give you the world
For it is too big to hold.
And the water in the ocean
Is much too cold.

All of the money in the world
Would mean nothing to me
If the cost of having it
Would mean that you leave.

You deserve all the good things
That life could possibly bring
For the world smiles bright
All of nature begins to sing.

Your very presence alone
Makes hearts around you heal
Oh, you don't see it, do you?
You're everything, my dear.

I'd risk my life in a heartbeat
To make sure you're not dead
Not a pretty little hair be scorched
On your pretty little head.

The world needs you in it
For you make all bad things good
You make everything happier
Even if you never knew you could.

You are a light that I need
To continue on my path
You give me strength to go on
To never give up or look back.

I will thank you now,
Tomorrow as well
To live without you
Would be worse than Hell.

I'm proud of you, dear
I'm happy you're mine
I promise to treat you well
Until the end of time.
