Tell me what it is 
 Tell me what you want to see 
 And I'll try to be it 
 I'll try to be that thing 
 'Cuz your desires are like 
 Opportunities for me 
 To help an angel 
    Tell me what it is 
 Tell me what you need to hear 
 I'll find a way to mean it 
 I'll change the world the way you like 
 If only anything there was that 
 I could do 
 To melt your heart 
 That is hard for me   
 How far & how long must I go? 
 Without a taste of love fulfilled 
 Not bittersweet 
 The way I feel when you are near 
 Is love 
 And gives me reason to endure 
 Whatever comes   
 Tell me what it is 
 Tell me what your soul is missing 
 I will summon prophets 
 And teachers from the past 
 I won't sleep until you rest 
 I won't stop to catch my breath 
 Until you're breathing easy   
 How far & how long must I go? 
 Without a taste of love fulfilled 
 Not bittersweet 
 The way I feel when you are near 
 Is love 
 And gives me reason to endure 
 Whatever comes   
 If I may, if I may help--I will 
 Beside you I have everything I need 
 To go forward boldly 
 To face anything at all 
 And to flower together 
 More than we ever could alone   
 How far & how long must I go? 
 Without a taste of love fulfilled 
 Not bittersweet 
 The way I feel when you are near 
 Is love 
 And gives me reason to endure 
 Whatever comes
