No matter what the distance

My thoughts of you inspire

All the joy within my life

That you and I desire

Time goes by so swiftly

And yet our time stands still

For you are but the reason

My joy in life fulfilled

The soft sweet smell of flowers

That beckon in a breeze

Brings me back to longing

For years in life we seized

Time is of the essence

Within each waking day

I see your face before me

A symphony is played

The music soft and gentle

As you hold me in your arms

We twirl within life's sunset

Reciting all love's psalms

Yes you are the reason

That gives me hope to breathe

Every breath of passion

That longing for you leaves.
