The Pain of Distance

I am here, you are there.
I call and you answer.
But the voice that I hear
Can ne'er be you, my dear.

I am here, you are there.
All that to me are near--
Pain, heartache, and despair
Sad tears fall, steps falter.

When are you coming back?
When will this aching halt?
Speak, bring light to the dark.
Why should we have to part?
