I lie here all alone and blue
Thinking of how much I am missing you
I long to hear the sound of your voice
But it is late and you are fast asleep
Twenty five hundred miles away
Underneath the cloudy Connecticut sky
I gaze out the window
And up into the clouds
Thinking about you
And wishing I could hold you tight
I long to be with you this long and lonely night
Just a short time away I tell myself
Before I can be with you once more
Enveloped in your strong arms
And held so tight
It seems an eternity away as I lie here
Brushing the tears away
Frustrated and angry at having to wait
For I am not a patient person that is for sure
Twenty-eight more days seems more then a lifetime
Way more than I should have to bear
So I toss and turn and try to fall asleep
But sleep eludes me
As I stare out into this Idaho night
One day we will be together
And I will never let you go
For it has taken me a lifetime to find you
Wondering where you are
And how we will ever meet
