Longing

LONGING

She’s on my mind all the time

I think of her night and day

I wish she was here with me

So I could hold her where she lay

But here I wait all alone

The wait drags on and on

Waiting until that one special moment

When fate allows us to be one

Others tell me to move on and forget

But they do not understand

Nobody knows what it is like

To love someone from another land

For her I would do anything

Sail across the seas

Climb every mountain

She brings me to my knees

It does not seem fair

That fate has chosen this road

The distance between us is grand

And every day it appears to grow

But soon we will be together

And everyone will know

That for her I have waited so long

For this I will never let her go
