The edge of you

Close to you, yet worlds apart,
Tangled in the threads of my heart.
Trying to bridge the distance wide,
But the emptiness won't subside.

At the edge of you, I stand alone,
Aching for the love I've never known.
Yearning for a touch, a sign,
To bring your heart closer to mine.

Whispers lost in the silent night,
Longing to hold you, feel you in sight.
But you're a distant star above,
While I'm just searching for your love.

At the edge of you, I stand alone,
Aching for the love I've never known.
Yearning for a touch, a sign,
To bring your heart closer to mine.

Can't you see the tears I've cried,
For a love that's been denied?
With every breath, I call your name,
Hoping you'll feel the same.

At the edge of you, I stand alone,
Aching for the love I've never known.
Yearning for a touch, a sign,
To bring your heart closer to mine.

At the edge of you, I'll always be,
Praying for the day you'll see.
That I'm here, waiting true,
At the edge of you, but still so close to you.
