Alone, Alone

"Alone, Alone" By Rachel Heffington Often, often I have wondered At the dusking of the night Where my love is wand'ring, wand'ring While I stand in shimm'ring light. Standing, standing, waiting only For the day God brings him here, He to view me, lovely, lovely, And to whisper something dear. Daily, Daily I have waited Pledging heart and hand to one Who will find me, faithful, faithful At at the rising of the sun. Rising, rising, ever upward, And my heart on wings will soar As I see him, waiting, waiting For me on the glimm'ring shore. Throbbing, throbbing--heart's own day-dreams Stab and squeeze my heart anew, At the beauty, precious beauty In this sketch, my love, of you!
