YOU
A thousand miles of ocean,
Kept me from your touch,
Kept me from those loving arms,
The warmth I enjoy so much.
Yet the stars lit my way
As I moved from place to place
They outlined the velvet sky,
In them I saw your face.
Although you were not with me,
Your eyes were my guide
And still separated from you on my deathbed,
Your love I visualise.
I've lived my life a lonely one
Waiting for someone who didn't show.
But even all these years apart,
Has caused our love to grow.
