Miles between loved ones,
Time spent apart,
Rainy days
And a lonesome heart.
What is one to do,
When they do not have a choice?
I guess I should be thankful
That I get to hear your voice.
So much time to think,
To become sure of what you know,
I never knew the extent of my love
Until I watched you go.
It rained as I drove home alone,
The raindrops blended with my tears,
That second I knew I needed you most
To calm all of my fears.
Many a storm has come and gone,
Since the day we parted,
I no longer fear the future,
But look forward to the life we’ve started.
