Steven Carlton.

Before you left i made a promise
id wait for you, and be here when you got back
and now youre a million miles away
and its dark where I am,
the time apart has hit me, and i realize how hard it is
i wonder if the sun has risen where you are
I miss the way my neck hurts in the morning,
from your arm being under it all night.
and that bed, its too big without you
i know the distance is a factor
but i stretch as often as i can
my goal is to reach your hands any day now
Its hard enough that youre gone
but its been 3 weeks since youve called
its hard to not know how your doing, or if youre safe
These faces that surround me give me no comfort,
its like i dont know anyone
Im walking around on idle;
im just living day to day until you get back
Your familiar face is the only face i need to see, for the rest of my life
What good is seeing if my eyes arent looking at you,
and what good are my arms if they arent holding you,
nothing is worth while without you, you give everything a purpose
I'll be here when you come back,
and i'll stay when your home,
it doesnt matter where you are; with me or overseas
as much as distance is a factor
the good outweighs the bad
nothings going to change the way i feel
Im a girl of my word; one more month and you'll be back
and i'll be here, waiting, patiently until then.
