Tibny Shine - Over seas

Eight hours away from you
I sleep but you are awake
What are we going to do?  
Do we know what is at stake?

Torturous to think that we
Though so close mind and soul
Are separated by sea
Will the distance take its tole?

Heart jumps at thought of that beep
You know the one on your phone
That means you're talking to me
 That great melodious tone

Could it be? God I hope so
You may be the one for me
Will time and distance soon show
Love builds bridges over seas
