From Afar
Smile when you think of me let no tears fall
Stop before you text me and please don't call
Even if I love you and even if you love me
Sometimes love is too blind to ever see
I buried you deep in my heart, a smoldering ember
I locked your memory in a box trying not to remember
And I pray you are happy with someone new
But no matter how I try I just can't forget you
When you are troubled and weary think of me
When this big old world is a little scary think of me
When you think of quitting and giving in
Remember I love you and am your friend
We are destine to love one another from afar
Wishing down payments of dreams upon a star
Hoping the future will find us together somehow
Please be happy my love, show the world your beautiful smile
