Minutes
Have you counted the days?
I have counted the minutes
Have you counted the hours
Down to the second?
Have you looked at the stars
And imagined that each one saw me?
Have you worshiped a picture?
Did it take you back home?
Did it fill you with sorrow?
Make you feel more alone?
Have you looked at the stars
And thought �I am so far away�?
I would give anything for just a moment in time with you
I would give everything I am for just a moment
With your fingers in my hair
Caught up in your stare
Forever is too long away�
Forever is too long away�
Have you thought of me at all?
I think of you every minute.
Have you wondered where I am?
As sometimes I do�
Have you looked at the stars
And despaired that I would ever come home?
I would give anything for just a moment in time with you
I would give anything at all for just a moment
With your eyes telling me
I am loved, do you see�
Forever is too long away�
Forever is too long
And I don�t go through a day
Without you in every breath that I take
And I don�t go through a night
Without you shining my guiding light
When I sometimes wonder if this is my last hour
You come to my side and tell me
�Hold on��
Have you counted the days?
I�ve counted the minutes
I would give anything for just a moment in time with you
I treasure all that you are every moment I�m without you
I just want to come home
Tired of being alone
Forever has been so long away�
Forever and ever away�
