Longing

Worte: Jan-Hendrik, Musik: Sandra

Tired and sad I sprawl on my bed
My room is tingling with your presence still
Long lost memories raise in my head
Where once was warmth now creeps the chill.

The memory of you tears my heart in two
lips set on fire by your tender kiss
I close my eyes, all what I see then is you
the warmth of your body, your laughter I miss.

"Fate doesn'r smile upon us", said she,
her words so true, too true to bear
20000 miles part us now, you and me
but still hope fills me, and not despair.

From you photo to the window wanders my gaze
my thoughts they drift off to a far of place
the sky leaden.grey with a sullen haze
yet above it all is hovering your face.

Outside in the fields dusk is rising
I light the candles of wich you were so fond
fog swallows everything, light is dying
darkness surrounds me, but we still share a bond
darkness surrounds me but we still share a bond.

Over oceans wide, over distance far
your memory I'll keep, enclosed in my heart.
