How Far & How Long
Tell me what it is
Tell me what you want to see
And I'll try to be it
I'll try to be that thing
'Cuz your desires are like
Opportunities for me
To help an angel
Tell me what it is
Tell me what you need to hear
I'll find a way to mean it
I'll change the world the way you like
If only anything there was that
I could do
To melt your heart
That is hard for me
How far & how long must I go?
Without a taste of love fulfilled
Not bittersweet
The way I feel when you are near
Is love
And gives me reason to endure
Whatever comes
Tell me what it is
Tell me what your soul is missing
I will summon prophets
And teachers from the past
I won't sleep until you rest
I won't stop to catch my breath
Until you're breathing easy
How far & how long must I go?
Without a taste of love fulfilled
Not bittersweet
The way I feel when you are near
Is love
And gives me reason to endure
Whatever comes
If I may, if I may help--I will
Beside you I have everything I need
To go forward boldly
To face anything at all
And to flower together
More than we ever could alone
How far & how long must I go?
Without a taste of love fulfilled
Not bittersweet
The way I feel when you are near
Is love
And gives me reason to endure
Whatever comes
