A8/9 Through The Screen. ISRC-CB-GWT-26-00271

Late at night, I see your face Shining softly on my screen. I'm lying here in this hospital room, Wondering what our lives might mean. The lights are low, the hallway's still, The world outside has disappeared. But when I hear your voice come through, For just a moment, you're right here. I see you there, but I can't touch you. I wish that I could hold your hand. If I could cross this distance tonight, I'd already be where you stand. You don't have to cross the world Just to make me feel less alone. Maybe I do. What do you mean? Maybe it's time I came home. Simple words can travel far Across a room, across a screen Across the miles between two lives And say the things we never mean To say aloud. Through the screen, through the night, Your voice brings me back to life. Though you're there and I'm here, I can feel you drawing near. Every word, every breath, Carries something we can't forget. If a screen can bring us this close tonight, Maybe distance doesn't have the final word. When I left, I thought I knew What the future had in store. Work, ambition, Silicon Valley I had walked that road before. But lying here has made me wonder What I'm really running toward. Maybe life has other plans Than the ones I once worked for. I've been thinking too. About what? About coming to California. You? Me. Maybe there's a company waiting That neither of us has seen. A new idea, a new beginning, Something more than just a dream. Biotechnology, a partnership, A chance to build something new. I've spent my life inventing things And now you're inventing a future too? Only if you're there. Then don't promise what you can't do. I'm not promising from a screen. I'm telling you I'm coming. Through the screen, through the night, We found a different kind of light. Every word, every prayer, Told us something waited there. No more miles we cannot cross, No more counting what we've lost. If tomorrow asks us to begin again, We'll begin again together. I'll be waiting. I'll be there. And wherever this new road leads, We'll meet it without fear. From Toronto To California From uncertainty To something new We'll take the road together! A new idea! A new company! A new beginning! A life we never planned to see! Tonight you're only on my screen. But tomorrow I'll be there. And the distance disappears. I'm coming. I'm coming home to you.
