And rekindle memories we both shared,
May they reflect the consuming thought
Of a love, we long ago declared.
May the spark of my undying passion
Underline these things I have to say,
Oh how I wish that you were in my arms
Instead of being so far away.
The hand of fate has decreed it
There is nought I can do or say
To the one that holds my eternal love
To the one who's far away.
I exist now in a land of dreams
My only link whilst we're apart
I fashion them so that you're with me
Sharing the love within my heart.
A heavy heart my darling
Nurturing a sorrow that won't go away
The burden of our separation
Increases ten fold every day.
The hand of fate has decreed it
There is nought I can do or say
To the one who holds my eternal love
To the one who's far away.
I long for our re-union
I pray that soon that day will dawn
So that you may reach out with your tender touch
And make whole this heart that's torn.
For the love I have and hold for you
Surpasses more than mere words can say
It is the beacon that lights the path
To one who is far away.
One day we'll be back together
And by your side I'll once more lay
Till then my darling I send my love
To one who's far away.
