Wishing you were here,
Trying not to shed a tear,
Wanting to hold you near,
I lie awake at night,
Wondering what you're dreaming?
Being so far away,
On this drab and boring day,
My thoughts turn to you,
Trying to get through,
Without being blue.
Are you thinking of me?
Are our minds on the same thing?
These feelings inside,
So new, yet so tender.
Looking at your picture,
At least I can remember.
Time has no mercy!
Or it would bring you to me.
It would make the days fly,
The nights disappear,
And I wouldn't be sitting here
Missing you, dear.
Oh to hold you in my arms once more!
That is all I'm asking for.
To feel your sweet lips on mine,
To snuggle into your embrace,
To see your wondrous eyes,
To touch your handsome face.
But that's not possible you see
With you so far away from me.
I will lie awake at night,
Till dawn's morning light,
Until Time becomes my friend,
And we are together again.
