You are near

Now
As years collide
As tears subside
I remember
The cool touch of your hands
Upon my face
In late December

The magic of your kiss
The feeling of pure bliss
The arms that I will miss
Every night, every morning

Still
I see your face
I feel your hand
Softly trembling
And though our time has gone
I dream alone
For a new beginning

You are near
You are near

With each bell I hear ring
Every song that I sing
Every Fall, every Spring
Every one, every thing
Every word that I hear
Every sob, every tear
Every night when I feel
That you'll never be near

You are there
You are here

Now
That you have gone
With every dawn
I'll remember
The night when last we spoke
That preface night
In cold December

And in the after glow
Before you had to go
You said, I had to know
That you love me
As I loved you
