As Long As It Was With You

I heard a faint whisper from afar—

only to realize it was your own heart.

It called out to me, telling me to go.

To where, however, I did not know.

 

It didn’t matter where we went;

the time together would be well spent.

We’d sit beneath a candlelight,

contemplating our next step in life.

 

I would sing you a calming lullaby,

and then whisper a lovely goodnight.

And when you woke up, I’d be there,

waiting for you to take me somewhere.

 

Where, however, I hadn’t a clue—

but as long as I was there with you,

it didn’t matter where you took me.

As long as it was with you, I’d be happy.
