The Longest Walk

I watch you from a distance,
I see everything you do,
I feel this longing persistence just to walk right up to you.

 I'd tell you how much I liked you,
You'd tell me how much you cared.
We'd walk into the sunset, thinking of all the love we'd share.

I wake up in the morning,
I'm staring at the wall.
I feel an incredible emptiness, it was only a dream, that's all.

I'm watching you from a distance,
I'm observing everything you do, and like in all my previous dreams,
I want to walk up to you.
I take a deep breath, my feet start to move, my mind begins to spin,
what will I say to you?

I reach my destination,
you look at me and smile.
Was there a hesitation?
Did I just walk a mile?

My heart skips a beat as I tell you how I care.
I look into those eyes,
is there something hiding there?

You tell me how much you like me as you gently take my hand.
We walk into the sunset,
walking through the sand.
