Needing You More

Needing You More ...

Absence is supposed to make the heart grow fonder,
and yet mine aches with every waking second to ponder,
on the distance between us that's tearing me apart,
sharing forbidden weekends letting you steal my heart.

When I sit on the train and wave my goodbye's,
my mind wanders back, wish you could see the love in my eyes.
Then reality sets in, I'm left wondering if I will see you again.
Can my heart take it? Can it handle this pain?

I get scared my memories will fade in time,
stealing away precious moments when heaven was mine.
I have nothing here to remind me of the things you do,
no photographs, letters, cards, nothing ... no you.

When we're together I pinch myself to make sure its all real.
Your fingertips, your caress the sensual touches I feel.
This love I know and feel in my heart is so right,
yet, because of circumstance I can't even be with you tonight.

How long do we live like this till one of us doesn't think it's
enough?
How long till one of us decides we want more than just love?
There will come a day when one of us will lay out the demands,
the question is, will we let it go or grab hold with both hands?
