Sometimes I see a little black, see a little white,
Sometimes I almost understand,
One moment coming into view, then slipping out of sight,
...But never quite at my command.

If you call me by name, can I ever become all that you became'
So true was your aim,
You are the distance, but oh, so near,
How can the one that I love be the one I fear'
There is no peace 'til you choose to appear.

I think I see a little wrong, see a little right,
But through this veil it's seldom clear,
Seems like I'm sitting in the dark, waiting for the light,
A deafening silence in my ear.

If you call me by name, can I ever become all that you became'
So true was your aim,
You are the distance, but oh, so near,
How can the one that I love be the one I fear'
There is no peace 'til you choose to appear.

If you call me by name, can I ever become all that you became'
So true was your aim,
You are the distance, but oh, so near,
How can the one that I love be the one I fear'
There is no peace 'til you choose to appear,
You are the distance, but oh, so near,
How can the one that I love be the one I fear'
There is no peace 'til you choose to appear.
