I wake up cold and sweaty
with a feeling that I need you
I only wish that I was holding you
and showing all my love is true
Yes I do
need you
I’m getting tired of this distance
without you here I can’t be me
In my prayers I’m always wishing
for an end to all this mystery
Can’t you see?
I’m not complete
I’m walking in the cold snow
one set of footprints, not enough
Looking back, I want to see you
and I’ll wait for you to catch up
Is that too much?
More than a crush
I want to feel you on my shoulders
as this eagle soars above tonight
We can cross the sea together
I’ll protect your heart, my fragile butterfly
Look into my eyes
I’ll melt the ice
This distance has to end soon
and this warrior needs a new start
I promise my sword will never get dull
because you are the sheath of my heart
Promise you’ll be mine,
my Valentine
~
