It's been so long...

It's been so long
Since I've seen your face,
It's been so long
Since I've felt that grace.

The grace I feel
When you are around,
So much light and happiness
I can't feel the ground.

It's been so long
Since we've spoken words,
And helped each other
Become strong and cured.

It's been so long
Since seen your smile,
I wish I could see it
And for longer than awhile.

It's been so long
Since your laugh I have heard,
The laugh that made the wind
And the trees stir.

It's been so long
Since those words that you said,
The truth that you told me
That made me stop dead.

But I'm doing as you told,
Waiting for you to see
Standing here waiting
For you to love me.
