Right from the start
I search for the connection between us
That allows us to communicate
When we don’t have time for contact with each other
I check it to make sure you made it to your destination safely
And that you’re well and as happy as you can be
Under whatever circumstances surround you
I offer my faith in you and the strength
Of unconditional love
I hold you close
Hoping to heal your pain and sorrow
I tell you everything I feel for you
Regardless of my ability to explain or comprehend
And give you as much of me as our bond allows
Throughout the day
Every day
I think back to moments we’ve shared
Both happy and sad
Recalling so much of what we've said
I call images of you to my memory
Wishing the distance between us was shorter
Every night as I’m relaxing for sleep
I cuddle myself into bed as if it were you
And relive the moment we met
The way that time stood still
How there was no air, no sound
Nothing else on earth seemed to exist
For the split second that felt like an eternity
And my heart stopped beating
Only to begin again in your embrace
And every single night of my life
From the moment sleep's sweet oblivion claims me
Until the alarm clock transports me back to reality
I dare to dream with you...
