You run there,
And I watch from here,
You smile high
And all I do is sigh
I see you
And see life,
You see me
And all I do is plea

I want your hand in mine
I want your heart with mine
I want you with me

Blink again and whisper
Cry again and scream
This is my life time after time
Can’t you see?

This desire isn’t just a want;
It’s a need for love

Your love can light up the nightly skies
as passionately as my nightly cries
Your love will change the world
in a windy, strong whirl

Your hand is on my chest
above my beating heart,

Blink,
you’re here

Your lips are near mine
waiting to taste the divine

Blink,
you disappear
