It's always Mariah Carey with you
Something sentimental about how
"When it's for real it's forever"
Or whistful and sincere about how
"You're never too far" and
"I'd give my all to have just one more night with you"

I know how much that would annoy you
But I'm a sucker for a sappy song
About a love that's lasted despite long distances
And time spent apart
A love not contingent on being together
A love that warms me just becuase you're out there somewhere
And knew me well
And loved me anyway, in your own sort of way
A love that can bend and shift and flex
Without fading, without fearing
The next curve life throws

I never would have figured
She would be the one to read my heart
Right out loud for the whole wide world to hear
And yet I can't hear that voice
But I think of youwith a tear and a smile
Because the plain fact is
You are never to far
I would give my all
And when it's for real, forever is only the beginning

It's always Mariah Carey with you
Somehow, even though we never could
She always manages to get it right.
