From a Distance
From a distance, I see you shining like a star.
The wind blows your hair and silken gown.
Suddenly,the darkness covered the ground.
I couldn't see your face, your image has gone.
I walk a mile,just to send you back in my arms.
I need to see your face, I need an air to breathe.
I wanna feel your embrace, I wanna burn high.
I need you here beside me...I need you alive.
I remember when I spread an ash in the wind.
I told myself, I'm setting you free.
Though letting you go kills my soul.
I let the wind blow and see you go.
But this boundary seems so hard to break.
No matter how far I move my feet,
I couldn't turn back your breathe.
Thinking of life without you makes me weak.
Today, I see the sun shines above me,
Waiting for the time you hold my hands.
To walk with you another miles.
To share love with you in paradise.
