There's an ache in my chest
And a hole in my heart
It grows a little each day
That we are apart
There's a haze in the sky
And a dimness to the stars
Everything seems a bit out of focus
When we are apart
There's not a day that goes by
When my thoughts don't depart
To imaginations of memories we could be making
But we are apart
There's a hesitation to say
Just what is in my heart
And a fear of not finding it in yours
Because we are apart
There's a yearning in my soul
For you to take my hands, whisper in my ear
That we'll be together, we'll make it work
Even when we are apart
There's a bond between us
That makes it so easy to pick up where we left
No matter how long it's been, the distance between
When we are together
There's those moments I wish would never end
Your arms wrapped tight around me
My head on your chest, your heart beating so close to mine
When we are together
There's a desire to know each other better
You listen to my favorite country songs
I spend my Sundays watching your favorite team
Because we are together
There's a time I will see you again
Touch your face, kiss you lips, run my hands through your hair
It's then that my heart will start to mend
When we are together
There's a time I must go to sleep
So I whisper my goodnight
Close my eyes, find myself dreaming of you
When we are together, when we are apart
