It was you

Oh how I long for your precious touch
to feel you, to know you
have you wipe away my tears.
To share with you my dreams,
my hopes, my fears.

And here you are so close at hand
next to me, beside me
but so very far away.
Hiding behind the words,
with so little to say.

I reach out to touch you
to feel you, to know you
that you really are there.
Yet you brush me away
unwilling to care.

So, far away I wander
deep within my soul
hiding, and yearning.
and with an angry stare
you leave without warning.

And here I am, desires unquenched
to feel you, to know you
wondering what went wrong.
your memory kept with me
replaying our song.
