Songs: Longing

The rain upon the window - it's a gloomy day

Tears fall upon my face he has gone away

Memories come rushing back all around my place

Reminding me of happy times and his smiling face

With bloody battles, soldiers die, the fight's not done

He promised he'd return to me when the war is won

Memories come rushing back all around my place

Reminding me of happy times and his smiling face

Daily letter's sent to say I love him and I care

Time passes slow with holidays that we don't share

Memories come rushing back all around my place

Reminding me of happy times and his smiling face

The doorbell rings, I answer it and it opens wide

He has returned, he's asking me to be his bride

Memories come rushing back - I see his smiling face

Once again we're hand in hand in our special place
