He listens to her talk
He listens to her story
He talks to her everyday
Just to see how she is
Wondering if she'ss making it
As he listens
He sits back and wishes
Wishes he could help
Wishes he could be there
Wishes he could take away her pain
Wishes he could hold her
Wishes he could hug her
Their friendship is so different
He's never seen her face
Other than in a photograph
He fell in love with her soul
Their friendship has grown
So Much more
Than he thought possible
He listens to her
Unlike anyone else has
He feels so much sorrow
His heart hurting
Just hearing of her pain
He sees a beautiful rose
Whose petals have been bruised
He wishes he could do magic
Make the bruises disappear
Make the pain go away
He wishes he could fly
He would be there
In a blink of an eye
He wishes he could be
The one to show her love
Love she's never known before
He wishes he could be
The one to protect her
From the cruel world
She knows all too well
He loves her from afar
Just waiting for that day
When he can see her face
When he can hold her hand
When he can wipe her tears
For now all he can do
He does for her
He listens to her story
Taking it all to heart
He tells her that he cares
He tells her that he. ll be there
He encourages her to live
Encourages her to survive
And he tells her
She is loved
Because he knows
For a fact
Without a doubt
He loves her
