Longing

In the distance I can see you
But you are still far away
My heart is sad, my longing strong
But in the distance I see you

I walk the path, the path of the day
My hopes raised higher
As the distance gets smaller
And I see you come closer

But peace I will have only
When I will be there
Will be with you...until then
The longing gets stronger
And the distance is ever too great
