So Close, So Far

So Close, So Far
By Joeysguy

So close is a husband and wife
Closer than most things in life

I gave the rest of my heart away
Given to her on our wedding day

From the day she became my bride
All the years we were side by side

The beauty that I had in my life
It was in the face of my wife

She’s in my heart and in my head
But no longer shares my bed

In those times when I would cry
Thoughts of her is the reason why

She’s always been the strength in my life
So much love I have for my wife

We took an oath as husband and wife
With death, it’s now in stone for all of life

She was as close as someone can be
Now in heaven she is so far from me

She’s still my girl, and will always be
For the love of her that I feel inside me
