The Nearness of You

If Tomorrow Never Comes
Garth Brooks

Narration by Sonji HERE

My thoughts are with you tonight.
Although, we are miles apart.
The distance only embeds my love
for you deep within my lonely heart.

To understand this feeling,
that I cannot ask you to do.
However,
please have compassion for me
and this love I have for you.

My sadness is for not being
near enough to prove this is real
Yet a feeling of happiness
for knowing that one day
I will get to share with you
the tenderness I feel.

As I lay here my body aches
for your nearness.
I long for the sound of your voice
and the touch of your skin next to mine.
Just to see your face
and to feel your warm embrace
would take away all that time has given.
And make this life of mine worth living,
again.
