When I Get Back Home

Many days have come and gone
And, as we know, life must go on
While lonliness lies in its wake
It's trying to make my heart break

As I sit and count the days
I think of all the subtle ways
You find to show your love is true
To make me smile when I am blue

Memories now fill my dreams
And fantasies of crystal streams
Upon the shore are you and I
Lying under starlit skies

I know that though I'm far away
Our love's too strong to go astray
And when I get back home, I'll see
You waiting at the door for me
