Lyrics

Would you like to spend the hours beside me
I will if you will stay here now
Let the days go into years together
I will if you will stay here now
No, no, no, I cannot take another day
With you a thousand miles away
When you come back let me hear you say
That you will stay here now.

Spending hours on the phone to hear you
It wraps me like a blanket now
A glass of wine, a book, a soft light
If you could be beside me now
No, no, no, I cannot take another day
With you a thousand miles away
When you come back let me hear you say
That you will stay here now.

I've been staring out the window
Sunlight sweeps across the floor
I don't have much to show you
But together we can find much more
So much more.

If you would spend the hours beside me
I will if you will stay here now
Let the days go into years forever
I will if you will stay here now
No, no, no, I cannot take another day
With you a thousand miles away
When you come back let me hear you say
That you will stay here now.

Nice composition and lyrics, has a classic late-70s pop ballad kind of feel with some nice changes and modulation.

Here's a heartfelt distance love song. The passion of the feeling comes through as honest and sincere. Nice arrangement with pleasant instrumentation. Some nice word pictures (warm blanket, glass of wine, sunlight sweeps across the floor). favorite lyric: I cannot take another day with you 1000 miles away. That is very catchy and memorable.
