This is what I long for more in life
That's what you bring
Passion, full compassion
You're the one who takes me in
I'm jumping around
Diving in
Coming around

Closer, so much closer to the place I'm longing for
Heated, no more coldness
Sun is shining, there is more
I'm jumping around
Diving in
Coming around

I'm holding on
Heart is heart together
Love within, brightening all the darkness
And I realize
You're the one that fills my day with joy and relief
Makes me whole
You're all I see
Yes, I believe

Closer, so much closer to the place I'm longing for
Heated, no more coldness
Sun is shining, there is more
I'm jumping around
Diving in
Coming around
