I Raised My Eyes

In my nights of solitude You came to me Each night only in My dreams and as real As it all seemed I couldn't find you By day yet I had hope That we would meet Per chance! I relished the nights Looked to the moon Wished upon a star That very soon I would see just where You are but still I raised my eyes I cried for you didn't Appear yet! Perhaps I expected To see you too soon My world was so empty I needed you in it Until at last you arrived And it was then the light Of love brightened up My life!
