Eight more days,

‘Til I see your face,

‘Til you come home,

‘Til I feel your warm embrace,

Eight more days,

‘Til you walk through that door,

‘Til you’re home for good,

To leave no more,

Eight more days,

‘Til these tears turn,

‘Til they become happy,

For you my heart yerns,

Eight more days,

‘Til you see your wife,

‘Til I see my husband

‘Til we start our life.
