Nearness Is To Love

Nearness Is To Love
Broken and blue
I sit here all alone
There's an emptiness
inside me
Biding time
just waiting for you
It's all in my mind
I try to tell myself
Take a breath
and count to three
And you're all
that I see
When I'm
without you
When you leave me
on my own
Minutes hours
turn to days
And I just don't know
what to do
I'm nothing
without you
Don't ever
let me go
Words of fondness is
to broken hearts
As nearness is
to love
Look
in those eyes
You've known
it all along
Ever patient
in your silence
Your warmth is
more than enough
I'm sorry that I
I haven't been myself
Don't you know
it's clear to see
That you're all
that I need
When I'm
without you
When you leave me
on my own
Minutes hours
turn to days
And I just don't know
what to do
I'm nothing
without you
Don't ever
let me go
Words of fondness is
to broken hearts
As nearness is
to love
Maybe I'm asking
too much
But there's
no other way
So I pray that you're
always by my side
When I'm
without you
Abandon me
by myself
Minutes hours
turn to days
And I just don't know
what to do
Saying
I love you
It's not
what I want at all
Words of fondness is
to broken hearts
As nearness is
to love
When I'm
without you
When you leave me
on my own
Minutes hours
turn to days
And I just don't know
what to do
I'm nothing
without you
Don't ever
let me go
Words of fondness is
to broken hearts
As nearness is
to love
By
my side
Your nearness is
to love
