700 Miles From My Heart

In my dreams you're right by me
Sleeping through the night beside me,
And when I wake up and it's a dream,
I don't have any tears left to comfort me.

I've locked my heart away
And I've dreamed about the day
I'm carelessly walking someplace
And run into someone just to see your face.

But my heart is broken.
It's been effortlessly stolen,
And I hope you will forever be holding it,
Fixing the crooked pieces that were bent.

Because the last time I hugged you,
You held me tight,
Loved me as I cried,
And said it would be all right.

Because time is just a number
And sorrow isn't forever,
And I promise I will always remember
All the good times we have had together.

Because I love you more than words can say
As all my old infatuations fade away.
I wish I could look into the future and see our fate.
Maybe then I could calm my heart rate.

And I think of you every day.
There isn't a day that I don't picture your face.
I cry every time it rains
Because I picture our first date.

And I miss the way you laugh
Because it brings me joy whenever I'm sad,
And if I'm with you, life has dealt me a good hand
Because only with you do I realize what I have.

I have a guy who makes me laugh
Who truly cares if I'm sad,
Who makes me smile when I'm mad,
And listens to me when I rant.

So between now and then,
Please don't forget who I am
Because it has been said
You can forgive but never forget.

So please don't forget my face
Or how when I'm nervous I pace.
And think of me whenever it rains
So that when we meet again we will be in the same place.

We will be in love without a care
Because what we had is rare.
You're exactly perfect down to every hair.
Even if there was an error, I would never care.

I love you!
