~ So Far From Your Love ~

What does it mean to be so far
From the one that you love so?
How does it feel when you can't take
Them every place you go?

When friends they ask,
" Why do you wait on one so far away?"
"How do you know their love is true,
Just because that's what they say?"

Those lonely nights, when you can't sleep
Because you're longing for their touch
How do you cope as time drags on
And you want them, oh so much?

The answer lies in trust, my dear,
And a love that's strong and true.
It goes beyond all doubt and care
With a bond that's strong as glue.

I don't worry about what others think
Or how much time this might take.
I only know you are my one true love
And what a great one you do make.
