-------------------------------------------
In my loneliness, when you're
gone and I'm all by myself and I need your caress
I just think of you, and the
thought of you holding me near
Makes my loneliness soon
disappear.
Though you're far away, I have
only to close my eyes and you are back to stay
I just close my eyes and the
sadness that missing you brings
Soon is gone and this heart of
mine sings
Yes I love you so, and that for
me is all I need to know
I will wait for you till the sun
falls from out of the sky, for what else can I do
I will wait for you, meditating
how sweet life will be when you come back to me
