All I Need To Do

All I need to do is close my eyes 
and you are with me. 
I only need to listen to my heart 
to hear your voice. 

Within my mind I see your smiling face 
with all your love so deeply in your eyes. 
I feel the loving touch of your embrace 
and all the caring sheltered in your heart. 

All I need to do is breathe a sigh 
and you are there 
I only need to let the moonlight in 
to feel your warmth. 

Many miles away, I cannot hold you 
and yet as close as if you were with me. 
And even though your face is out of view 
I never feel as though you're far away. 

For all I ever need to do is smile 
to feel your love. 
I only need to turn my thoughts to you 
to know you're there.
