Alone

Alone
Alone
I am alone
Everyone I care about is far away
Too far to help me
and I need them.
I need them.

I need to feel strong arms encircling me
but those strong arms are with my love
and he is far away.
I need to hear a voice say
"I love you"
but that too, is too far to hear.

I am seperated
by distance
by money
by obligations

I am seperated
from my one salvation

those who could help me
are wrapped in their own cocoon
and I suffer and die

If only
if only
I know you love me
if only I
could see you
just for a minute
just for one hug
just for one uttered phrase
then my life would be
bearable
