Analysis of Greatest Of Distance.



The greatest of distance,
Cannot compare,
To how I so love you,
How I so care,

There is nothing I see,
That will keep us apart,
No obstacles so great,
Stopping my heart,

I know this my darling,
We are meant to be,
Soon time will pass,
And we shall marry,

The greatest of distance,
It matters not,
It is your love darling,
I have always sought.
