Dear Long-Distance Love,
Often times I tell you
And occasionally I question
Although I’ve felt that miles between
And although my childish ways
If I’d had the chance to sculpt you
I wouldn’t have mastered the skill it took
I guess you wonder why I took the time
Of the love within my heart
And just how much it pains me
For us to be far apart
If the love is the same from you
But just as quickly questioned
Come the answer of your love true
Keep us from being together
I think the distance, time apart,
Helped us through stormy weather
Threatened to bring an end
I could always count on you
As a loving friend
With my own bare hands
And put into you all the things
I look for in a man
To create a being like you
One so wonderful outward and in
With a heart so pure and true
To write these words in rhyme
The simple truth is I wanted to show you
How glad I am that you’re mine
