Every night as I lay in bed
Thoughts of you flood my head

No matter how hard I try
I incessantly begin to cry

I want so badly to hold you tight
To fall asleep next to you each night

Because I know that cannot be
Sharp pains of sadness encase me

The world we knew is now far away
We draw farther apart day by day

I no longer know just who you are
That leaves within me a permanent scar

I wish so badly there was something I could do
To be the one who best knows you

My love for you still remains tough
Even when times are extremely rough

All I want is your love in return
To know that me you will forever yearn

If that is a promise you are willing to make
The separation is something I can willingly take

If you cannot say that you love me too
Leave you alone is what I will do

If you wish to remain the one closest to my heart
We have to conquer being apart

Work and effort is what it will take
That is a sacrifice I am willing to make

I just need to know what you want me to do
I need you to tell me that you love me too
