I seek my happiness within you.

In the quiet of the night, when all is still
My thoughts wonder about my future.

Though middle age is upon me, I still think with youthful fervor of a love I have yet to receive.

I want to find a quiet spot, at the end of the day to put my hat upon.
With you by my side as we talk about the toils of our day.

How sweet and wonderful those thoughts are,
Dreamlike, perhaps they are just that, a dream.

Though I don't know what the future may bring,
Wraths of winter, or bliss of spring,

I will keep seeking my happiness in you.

And I shall love you from afar...

And I shall love you from afar.

Through the fogs of memories and distance.

Through pains of wrath, through bursts of joy.

Through times of anguish, through spells of grace,

Through moon lit nights, Through star less darkness

True, you shine brightest and burn me with your gaze and passionate embrace.

I cannot return back to how the ways were between us, the lovers, once as one, now rent asunder,

A thousand times a thousand nights I cried myself to sleep for you.

But perhaps just perhaps, you may remember and return.
