Distance - Each Time We Meet

My heart always skips a beat My eyes look up to meet yours It feels so surreal – you at my door Your arms open wide – embrace Strong, tight – like not letting go Its then that the world is outside All I see, feel and desire is right here Like a flower that absorbs life from the sun You are the sun energising my soul It just wants to burst with excitement Every second I am with you Like bare feet quick stepping hot beach sand Like dancing under the water sprinkler Singing out loud with the windows down I could fly if only I had wings to glide I’d take you on the most amazing sky ride You see the happiness in my eyes Extending from my smile, my inside – out Of all the people one meets in their lifetime It’s rare to find someone who touches you Connects with you - touches you right inside My thoughts and my feelings so clear A lifetime of defences built – fallen to the floor As you just walked straight through each door Locks click open, inviting you to explore Everything about me and all that I am and could be You are the air that I need to breathe – to be me Because knowing you in this world completes me So when we meet again – my heart will skip My eyes will once again look up to meet yours It will feel surreal – you at my door We will embrace so tightly not letting go Door closes behind – the world outside You and me Right here Right now
