Something is wrong, but nothing you can put your finger on
In so many ways it's going fine.
You couldn't complain, you say, and day to day you get along
But lately you lie awake at night
What are you missing? Even though
You're not alone- you wake up lonely
You felt this way before
You know it's true, it's calling you to ASK FOR MORE
Like a message in a bottle, cross the ocean
Just to wash up on your shore
From deep in your heart, please, ASK FOR MORE
A beautiful dream you had reminds you of the emptiness
Something your soul is trying to say
Usually you can close your eyes and not remember this
But it's echoing back from miles away
Only a whisper - showing you something you already know
What are you missing? Even though
You're not alone- you wake up lonely
You've had this dream before
Signs are true, calling you to ASK FOR MORE
Like the fragrance of the garden
That can reach you through the cracks around your door
