Distance Takes Us Far Apart

Distance takes us far apart, And darkens my today, I have to keep remembering, You’re just a thought away. When the world is too confusing, Times are hard to bear, I pull your precious meaning, Your bright spirit, from the air. If I sometimes drift into A lonely state of mind, I gather up the memories, Of days we left behind. And though you’re not beside me, I can tap into my heart, And draw upon the warmth and love, That lives when we’re apart. And with these fond reflections, On the times when you were near, I sense a little bit of what, It’s like to have you here.
