No matter how far away
You're always so near
Our moments now gathered
Each thought with a tear

I miss you and love you
I pray that you're safe
For only just one moment
I need your embrace

I feel you beside me
With love that we share
Each moment you are away
You're love's always near

Just look to the sky now
The blanket we share
The stars now are twinkling
In most fervent prayer

I hold you forever
So deep in my soul
Our moments together
They always console

I walk with you daily
I share all your life
The love that stays with me
You always ignite.
