We Are Not Far

We are not far away
It's close enough
To touch, and yet it seems
That 20 miles is more like
20 million miles away.
We talk, we laugh but
Still the veil you wear
Says I am not sure
If I should say
Come here to me, or stay
Those 20 million miles away
And such the power
Of love's exchange
And verbal interplay
I know not if one day
You'll call me back
And I'll not have to stay
Those 20 million miles away
And should you choose
To let me come
A little closer everyday
Then it won't matter if I am here
Or twenty million miles away
