It's been so long since we were this close.
I can feel your breath blow gently across my face.
You lean in & kiss me & I'm fairly certain I've left myself.
I run my fingers through your hair.
I rub your back & caress your face.
There's so many people but they cease to exist when I'm this close to you.

This close. So close & yet so far.
How can it be? How am I so close to you but not?

You ask me to stay & I wish I could!
I want to so badly, you have no idea!
This isn't the first time I've been here.
I've been here before, but it's still different.
Then again, I guess every time is different.

I'm so close to you. So close & yet so far.
How can it be? How am I so close to you but not?

I take your big soft hands in mine.
I feel them, massage them.
I even touch your nails just because I can.
I like them. Their perfect!
Then again, you're perfect!
You with all your rage, all your imperfections.
You are perfect in them.

I'm so close to you. So close & yet so far.
How can it be? How am I so close to you but not?

You hold me tightly & say you have to go.
I want to beg you to stay, but that's not dignified.
You say
"Be careful!
Get home safe. . ."
I think if I were riding with you, I would be safe.

I'm so close to you. So close & yet so far.
How can it be? How am I so close to you but not?

I give you your treat & you act like it's the first time.
Your body fills with excitement & so does mine.
To add insult to injury, you lean down for another round of kisses
before you depart.
I silently urge you on & hold your body tight against mine.
I know this will all come to nothing, but I don't care!
So go on! Give me your kisses & affection.
Their all I need to keep me moving, so go on, give them to me.

I'm so close to you & yet so far.
How can it be? How can I be so close to you but not?
