Sweetheart Mine

Tonight, my sweetheart,
as a thousand stars are shining,
in a wintry sky of grayish blue,
darling mine, i am again
dreaming of other ways
of finding the real you.
As a cold gray moon is rising,
out of the shadows of the past,
sweetheart mine, i am always longing
to walk down life's pathway,
hand in hand with you.
In the early morning of springtime,
in the sunshine and the rain,
sweetheart mine, i am always praying
that your gentle heart
is really, truly mine.
Darling mine, i am always waiting,
in the hope you'll come my way.
But soon the night time
will be retreating,
bringing forth a brand new day.
I am only hoping that our hearts
beat as one again.
But, when the heavens
in the twilight of life
bring a tender lullaby,
darling, sweetheart mine,
i am always hoping,
that someday you will
try to understand.
