Another place and time

I tried to tell you once before
On an early morning
A promise whispered to the night

There were a hundred things left unsaid
Then there was another hundred
And then a hundred more

I sought for you
But you were out of sight
But even if I found you
I could never say a word
If my heart could only speak through my eyes
Maybe you could see through my soul
If I could just hold you
You would feel how much I long for your warmth

Could you have heard what I should have said
Did you understand through my gaze
That I wanted to be with you
In that second before we'd smile and turn away
Could you tell that you are all the smiles I would ever need

Tonight I am miles away
And years from that night
In another place and time
Where you should be able to see me
When you can finally hear those words
Could you?
Would you?
Are we where we should be
And if this is it
Will you still be here when it's all done?
