Lyrics
Talk to me in riddles. Talk to me satirically. Whisper or speak loud and clear, as long as you talk so I can hear. Go ahead and ask me qusetions, make me laugh, you oughtta know that's good for my soul. Criticize, make suggestions. But please stay, and hold me without letting go! CHORUS: HOW I LONG TO BE HERE WITH YOU, TO SEE YOU, TO TOUCH YOU NOW. I AM HOME WHEN I AM NEAR YOU. HOW I LONG TO BE WITH YOU How I love that you don't flatter, no you tell it like it is, you really do. No one else could know me better. I just love how I am when I'm with you. Why did I stay away this long anyhow? You are so pure, and so sincere. I need your lyrics to enrich my heart. The way your eyes dance, oh i need that joy again. CHORUS
