so far away
What am I suspended here? Should I kid myself that I have no fear? I get no choice, I just have to wait It may already be too late  I don't know what's going on She is here, but I am gone, I am gone  My love is lying here She's far away though she looks so near `Time will tell,'' she says to me When a warm ?...? is all I need  Her peace of mind, her strength of will It will come, she's sure it will But how can I put my mind at rest? I feel I'm coming off second best  And I'm cut with my own life Is this a dream or is it real life? Oh, sleep, come on me soon I can't bear this lonely room  Look at that hair lying there The room is dark, she shows no fear I'm lying still, my eyes are wide My heart is pumping, I'm still alive  I'm still awake against my will What will it ever take to still this burning in me?
