All I Need

Oh, sister, we are bound by blood eternally An ocean separates us but I can still feel you here with me Why, at night, do I have nightmares, and not dreams? Because, dear sister, you are all I need Amber eyes, amber hair, amber skin Polar opposites if not for kin You ask me, "Why do you call to me once again?" And my simple reply will be as it has always been Must I spend my whole life without you by my side? Where will you be when all of the seas have dried? Because, at night, on the shore where I lie All I can do is await the riptide How long must I wait for you to join me here? When I hear the squawk of birds, it is your voice I wish to hear And as I close my eyes, escapes a single tear Because tomorrow will always be my biggest fear I lay my head and close my eyes I thrash in the night and await the sunrise When at last they open, your face forms in the sky And that is the moment when I feel most alive I can feel the need of you deep in my core With every dream of you, I wish and wish for more The voices in my head ask me, "What are you waiting for?" I am awaiting the day you step foot upon the shore.
