Far Away From Me

As the tears swell up deep in my eyes
For once in my lifetime I feel alive
Dwelling on the past, I will not allow
The fears I once had mean nothing to me now

"Let go of the past and think of the future.", they say
They don't know what its like being afraid every single day
Afraid of losing the one that you love the most
The only thing I want right now is for us to be close

She means everything to me, but does she know?
Can she sense the feelings that I just can't show?
I want her to see how much she changed my views
She's just someone I would never want to lose

The hardest thing when loving someone so far away
Is not knowing if they will still love you the very next day
It's not that I doubt it, I just wish she knew
That sometimes i just don't know what to do

I love her with all the love my heart has to provide
So pretty girl, don't worry.. I have nothing to hide
If you were here, you could tell by the tears in my eyes
This love we've been sharing, I hope it never dies
