One day, I am sent a letter
A letter saying you admired me for as long as you can remember
Saying you are the one who wishes to love me
Every day, a new letter I am sent
And I send back
Every day, we say and dream the same three lines
Waiting to be eye to eye
Lips to lips
Hand to hand
We work our way to meet in the middle
Every day, and every step we take
We see ourselves more clearly
One day, I am in the middle
And you are just one step away
I am filled with so much love for you
But something happens
Once you're about to make the final step
You stop
And you drop my letters, all of them
All that say the same three lines
Waiting to be eye to eye
Lips to lips
Hand to hand
You throw them aside
Without breaking eye contact, you step away once
Then again
Then again
What did I do for you to walk away?
What did I say for you to walk away?
Was I not what you wanted once were almost eye to eye?
Face to face?
Lips to lips?
Hand to hand?
I thought we wanted the same
Wanting and waiting for someone
Here I am in the middle
All alone with my letters all scattered while I carried yours along the way
I see you so far away
A spec slowly walks away in the distance
Here you left me all alone, waiting and wanting
