Patience...


If the void between us

Becomes too far to handle,

I will make a teleportation device

So I can be close to you once more

 

If the time apart

Fades memories from my mind,

I will make a time machine

So I can remember each instant

 

If the dark clouds above

Hide the night from your eyes,

I will make a rocket ship

So I can take us to the stars

 

If the way back

Were only so simple,

I would make anything

So I could close the distance
