Distance

with your job comes uncertainty,
whether your home for the weekend,
or slaving away back at base,
all I picture is that lovely smile on your face,
when your with me,
I forget about that always packed case,

distance makes the heart grow stronger,
distance connects us so much closer,
distance makes me yearn for you longer,

I wait all day for your text good morning,
I wait all day for your Facebook messages,
I wait all day to get your x's,
I wait all night for the next day to draw closer,
closer to the day that we meet again,
closer to the moment when I can hug you for what seems like forever,

distance makes the heart grow stronger,
distance connects us so much closer,
distance makes me yearn for you longer,

distance makes my love for you so much more powerful,
