How far are You?
How close am I?
I know Your Words are true
When I don't feel them inside
Still I believe You'll never leave
So where are You now?
You're all I have
You're all I've known
Your breath is breathing in my soul
Still I am gasping, aching, asking,
Where are You now?

'Cause I just want to be with You
I just want this waiting to be over
I just want to be with You
And it helps to know the day is getting closer
But every minute takes an hour
Every inch feels like a mile
Till I won't have to imagine
And I finally get to see You smile

My journey's here but my heart is there
So I dream and wait and keep the faith
While You prepare
Our destiny, till You come back for me
Oh, please make it soon

'Cause I just want to be with You
(I dream about Your promise to return)
I just want this waiting to be over
(And I wake up hangin on Your word)
I just want to be with You
(But for now my feet are planted here on Earth)
And it helps to know the day is getting closer
(And it helps to know the day is getting closer)
But every minute takes an hour
Every inch feels like a mile
Till I won't have to imagine
And I finally get to see You smile
