Again, alas, that time is here,
to lay my head without you near,
i close my eyes and think of you,
my dreams, i hope, will soon come true.
i say goodbye, i say good night,
i hope that you are sleeping tight.
the night is cold, the land is dark,
yet on me you have made your mark.
thinking of you, brings me delight,
even in the stormy night.
even in the howling gales,
the animals cower near barns and bales.
yet i am warm, with just my thoughts,
and knowing i am near to dawn.
to see you again, another day,
another chance, for me to say:
i loved you then, i love you now,
all of you i love somehow.
