When...? Songtext

When you're far, I don't know what to do

This depression always comes to me
Whenever I know, you're not near me
How can I be happy without you?
When I always long so deeply for you

This burning deep inside my heart
That grows, with every mile that we're apart
I am not myself, how could I be?
When my love is so far away from me?

These tears that fall, they make a sea
A sea of worry, where could you be?
Are you safe, away from harm?
"Please God protect her, with Your guarding arm"

And then when I think I could lose you
The burn greatens, the yearn too
What would I possibly do? If I was without you?

These moments apart I can barely stand
But a lifetime apart, and...
An eternity away from my love?
Oh, how I wish I could not think of

But now the sea of tears have made an ocean
And now my bleeding heart's only potion
Would be to see you again,
But then comes one question

When....?
