Etrangère

Why are you so far

From my loving arms ?

That same sad farewell voice we had.

Sighs, soft and blue,

Echoes of you

Within those empty hours.

There's nothing to say

I know that you're away

But my silly heart longs and craves for you,

Through the day I go,

Hovering along,

Fumbling my way through

Without you.

Why are you so far,

And I, left behind ?

Honey please, just pick up the phone,

Give me word from you,

Anything  will do,

Soothe my hours with such bliss !

When I close my eyes

And remember your face

My heart smooths out its pace

Let my doubts be gone

Let me hope for dawn to come

And sunshine bathe me at last.

Next time honey do

Ring me out of the blue,

Days felt wrong without your kiss !

Nothing here seems true,

Let me wave at you.

Let me, love, breathe more than this.
