I count the days as days,
seeming to last for weeks
as if it will never end.
It’s been far too long,
Dear! Far, far too long.
Like some odd craze,
Together, I seek
to see you again.
It’s been far too long,
Dear! Far, far too long.

I miss your soft touch,
your fingers laced with mine.
I want it ever so.
It’s been far too long,
Dear! Far, far too long.
This distance isn’t much,
really, I don’t mind,
but I miss you ever so.
It’s been far too long,
Dear! Far, far too long.

Empty with no hold,
lost with distant bliss,
your eyes a memory.
It’s been far too long,
Dear! Far, far too long.
My feelings so bold,
missing that soft kiss,
All seem so far away.
It’s been far too long,
Dear! Far, far too long.
But I can wait,
Always!
You’re all worth
the while.
