Across the miles

It's funny to me

How far you are

But how near you seem to be.

I could talk all night

Just to hear you breathe

I could spend my life

Just living this dream.

You're all I'll ever need.

You give me strength

You give me hope

You give me someone to love

Someone to hold.

When I'm in your arms

I need you to know

I've never been

I've never been this close.

With all the lovers

I used to know

I kept my distance

I never let go.

But in your arms

I know I'm safe

'cause I've never been held

And I've never been kissed in this way.

You're all I'll ever need

You're all I'll ever need.

'cause you give me strength

You give me hope

You give me someone to love

Someone to hold.

When I'm in your arms

I need you to know

I've never been

I've never been this close.

Close enough to see it's true

Close enough to trust in you

Closer now than any words can say.

And when

When I'm in your arms

I need you to know

I've never been

I've never been this close.

You give me strength

You give me hope

You give me someone to love

Someone to hold.

When I'm in your arms

I need you to know

I've never been

I've never been

Oh no I swear

I've never been

I've never been this close.
