The One That I Love

I bid her farewell as she waves from the doorstep, My heart feels so heavy I so want to stay, But there I must leave her till late in the evening, When I shall return at the end of the day. I'm heading to work on a cold winter's morning, The sunlight does shine through the clouds up above, Each step that I take is another step further, Away from the arms of the one that I love. While there my mind wanders I'm thinking about her, Awaiting the time I can see her again, I count every second each minute and hour, Each day seems a lifetime of heartache and pain. And then as I leave all my burdens seem lifted, I sail through the air like the clouds up above, Flying for freedom and heading for home now, And into the arms of the one that I love.
