Sitting here crying

Thinking of you

So far away

Making me blue

Wanting to hold you

And feel your heart beat

Whispering softly

My heart on my sleeve

I look into your eyes

And I can see love there

You pull me closer

To tell me you care

Breathing my name

On whispered sigh

Heart skips a beat

Passion so high

The rest of the world

Just vanished from sight

Knowing this love

Can only be right

Awakened from dream

Lonely again

Placing my heart

In the palm of your hand

I've never felt

This feeling before

Wanting to hold you

For evermore

List'ning to sad song

Of a mourning dove

Sending me visions

Of unrequited love

I long to hold you

Ever so tight

Make sweet love to you

All through the night

I say a prayer

As I whisper your name

A simple wish

That you feel the same
