My lover is leaving for the army…

This yearning I feel of you

Deep down inside of me

I tried to restrain it as it grew

For I saw it as a dream that could not be

 

When you held me close

My heart forever seemed to flutter

Even now time itself slows

With the words your dare to utter

 

Days I remember that soon you’ll leave

Are days that kill me piece by piece

Days in your absence are days I grieve

Yet I have to be strong as these days increase

 

I’ll miss you completely with all my soul

But I’ll try to keep courage as I let slip my control.
