The rain comes down like tears,
It seems a million years
Since you have gone and we’re apart.
Now winter nights grow long,
The lark has hushed its song
As though it shares my grieving heart.

Then I just close my eyes
And bring back sunlit skies,
The blazing love we knew before.
We’ll set desire free
When you come home to me,
And feel the summer heat once more. 

The cold wind calls your name,
And though they look the same,
Familiar places are all wrong.
Old friends still ask for you,
As if it can’t be true
That you’re not here where you belong. 

I will wait for you forever,
Keep the flame through any weather,
Move the earth to be together.
You are all the world to me.
