Distance

REPOST

A/N: please play the song distance by Jireh Lim on youtube.

This is the story behind a woman's view of the song distance.

********

I choose you over a prince, 'cause you're the one my heart beats only for. You are a commoner of the town, having baggy shorts & tattooed arms. Some would say you're a good for nothing man, but I say I will love you as long as I can.

When I'm married to you, I thought I would be happy forever. Because I choose the one I love & I feel better, but then after a while you left me hanging. And all I can do is sing...

Baby, I wish you're here right next to me,

But you're miles and miles away from me,

I tried to call you up. You answered me that you'll come back.

Your sweet voice on the phone,

Brings sweet melody to my ears,

I could spend my day just listening to it,

I was really hoping.

Time will come the day we'll be together again,

And all the waiting will be worth it for sure, 'cause you'll be back to my arms.

Maybe I thought for once that you and I will never work,

But I am holding on to your heart over a pleasure to meet,

When that time comes, I hope that it would give us the courage to face anything together.

I am surrounded by ones that are closer, those people who seems to be my special friends. People who are always there for me.

But all I can see is you, Staring, smiling at me,

I would never break this promise,

Until the day you say

don't bother coz you found another,

I never thought we'll be stronger.

From sunlight to moonlight.

Everyday I long for your touch and kiss, missing you in everything I do.

Only in my dreams I could get closer to you anytime,

Coz there I can fly for free.

Why oh why do I have to be so far away, why do I have to suffer being apart from the one my heart belongs.

But for someone like you

I'm willing to stay, coz that's what I said when I made up my mind to marry you.

Maybe I thought for once that could find another you,

But as you see I was wrong cause there is no one like you.

When you left, I once thought of it. But I already looked for a man who would also capture my heart, yet no one did.

Sooner I'll be by your side,

And everything will be worth the wait.

Even if it takes a lifetime for me to wait for your come back, I will wait for you. Simply because I love you.
