Listen, listen, listen, my distant friend
listen to me.
You seem to know me well,
why not identify Yourself?
In the morning light You know me.
I’ll remember this throughout the day and into the night.
You keep me always under Your observation.
This truth I know.
How can You be so close and yet so far away?
I orbit around You.
I laugh, cry and sing for You.
Pull me closer.
