about

A man finally is able to ask a woman to marry him after being separated by circumstance.

lyrics

Across the country, or across the yard.
You never were too close, but always too far.

Oh I waited, an eternity.
I wasn't satisfied till you were next to me.

And once I had your hand I never let it go.
You might say we took so long, but I want you to know:

You are worth a life-long wait. An easy pill to swallow.

When you boarded all those planes,
You took with you the red inside my veins.

Seconds, minutes, hours, days.
I counted them all when you were away.

In a crowd of high and rise I walk you to the sea.
Tell you one more time and ask if you will marry me.

You are worth the life-long wait. An easy pill to swallow.
And when we can't be touching, with you my heart will follow.

Set the table say a prayer.
In the morning you know I'll be there.
