i think you're near

i think you're near, but can't be seen.
so far away, what does it mean?
how could a heart beat on a shore
so distant where the thunders roar?
why is there silence in your eyes?
will all the special memories die?
please tell me that your love will live
with every song to you i give.
are all your skies dark in the day,
or do they thrive just in my way?

i think you're near, but can't be heard,
not even in a singing bird.
does my voice ring in your ears?
do you forget with passing years?
when will i hear a laughing sound?
perhaps when your smile is found.
speak of me though i am far.
tell them i am your shining star.
are all your windy nights so cold,
or are they just for me so bold?

i think you're near, but i'm not sure.
how much more can i endure?
can you even feel my pain
within the drops of angry rain?

i think you're near but can't be seen.
