overcoming distance pt1

its at these times of great despair
that i'm somewhat obliged
to try and be every star in your sky,
i can only try
story of my life, that i can only try.
and just when i get a sense of direction
its kinda funny that i see your face and i lose it all,
i'm lost but i'm lost with you,
i'm lost but at least i have you,
and there's not a single thing i can do
but enjoy the ride.

its 3 am and i must admit
i'm rather tired, but the conversation's getting better
so dont worry i'm still here
my eyes are feeling kinda heavy, just like my heart
because you're over there,
and i'm stuck over here
so i'm convinced that this is torture,
its not right to need someone this bad
and there's reservation sign in the empty space on my bed
where you can lay your head,
so we can laugh til the sun comes up,
so i can hold you til the sun comes up

i cant really explain
the feeling going through me
when you say "for the rest of forever"

oh, these endeavors.. pt1

i've been waiting,
for a day much like this one
to come along and say,
c'mon you can build your home here
stay here forever, however long that may be
but there's been many days
much like this one
that have come bearing nothing but empty tanks
for their empty promises

i once met a girl,
said she'd live forever,
that she'd ride on a day much like this one.
but now she's 6 feet closer
to a permanent home than i am,
at the moment,
she said, "i've been waiting"
and i said "me too"
she called me a fool for doing so,
and i said "its cuz i'm waiting for you"

i guess i'll be stuck just pacing,
until the floor is gone,
i'll be waiting for her day
somehow i'll know and it will pay
if she ever rode away

:)

i ride on every word you say like its the last i'll ever hear
i know i'm kind of weird
but hey you are too
and i know i've got my depressing moments
but hey, you've got problems too

and i'll do my best
to heal your wounds, like any god fearing person would do
and if you ever need anything
even at 3 in the morning,
there isnt anything i wouldnt be glad to do, for you

i know i'm random at times,
and i know i'm so confusing with everything
but as long as you know
that i'll be there for everything
to hold your hand through anything
you've done so much for me
i thank you for restoring what was left of my sanity

if i possessed everything
i'd give it all up honestly
just to have you
i love hearing your voice
and i love hearing you laugh
i love the way that even after you've gone, you linger
i hate it when i have to leave you, if it were up to me we wouldn't have to
but most of all
i love you.
