Reflection of the Heart

Every time I glance in the mirror
I can see your reflection
Your reflection staring
Back at me…
Every time I look at the lake before me
I can envision your smile
Your smile that alone
Can brighten my day…

I feel… like someone
Has ripped out my heart from my chest
This distance between us
Is like torture to me

Goddess of my heart
Love of my dreams
I cannot imagine my life without you beside me
It’d be too painful… for me
Time seems to go slow
Making me crazy
With every second that I spend away from you
I know for sure it’s… killing me

Every time I glance at the sunset
I feel as if I am dying
Dying because you’re
Not beside me…
I can feel your love reaching out for me
Like a hand placed on my heart
My heart that belongs
Only to you…

But I… know that this is
More like a test for me everyday
It only makes my love
For you, continue to grow

Goddess of my heart
Love of my dreams
I cannot imagine my life without you beside me
It’d be too painful… for me
Time seems to go slow
Making me crazy
With every second that I spend away from you
I know for sure it’s… killing me

I feel… like someone
Has ripped out my heart from my chest
This distance between us
Is like torture to me

But I… know that this is
More like a test for me everyday
It makes my love for you
Continue to grow stronger

Goddess of my heart
Love of my dreams
I cannot imagine my life without you beside me
It’d be too painful… for me
Time seems to go slow
Making me crazy
With every second that I spend away from you
I know for sure it’s… killing me
