As Much As I...

I wont tell the time

but just so you know that it is late

I've been thinking all day

all midnight about you.

Everyone is asleep

leaving just the crickets here with me

The chill of coldnights

sinks deep within my skin...

As the memory of you

penetrates deeply through

This core of my heart

could ever contain more of you

As much as I wanna be in your arms

I just want you to be happy

As much as I wanna hold you

I pray that you'll find love that last

I'll just stand here in the distance

waiting at the corners of your life

hoping that you'll see something differently in me.

As much as I could... ...

Stand at a distance... ...

So near yet so far... ...
