A Valentines Day Away
I wake up in this cold, cold bed
A thousand miles from home
I see your face up in my head
Your love follows where I roam
Too many trips, too many miles
Away from your loving arms
The countless looks and warm, warm smiles
Warding off this hard worlds harms
I yearn to feel you up close and near
No miles or clothes between
Safe and knowing my loving dear
Your looks and smiles now seen
I count the hours until we meet
Heartbeat by heartbeat, I go
Measuring time in till we greet
I miss you, miss you so
To the Great Love of my life, my beautiful Marianne
