When You Are There

when you are there
i can't help but stare
and when you go
time seems to go so slow

our eyes seem to meet across the room
spirits soar across the moon
faster and faster my heart will beat
until i look away because i get cold feet

when you are here
all of my fears
seem to disappear
every time you are near

our own little world you and me
together shall we be?
