Alone I Wait
The loneliness builds up inside.
My soul cries out for her,
but she is not here.
She is far away,from here,
and here is where I am.
Here away from her.
Here so far from a heart so pure.
Here far from her loving arms.
Here is where I am.
Here is where I must stay,
and wait.
Wait for her.
Wait for my love to return.
Wait here, wait for her.
Here alone, I wait.
