How long will it take until I meet my love again?
How long will it take until I meet my love again?
Tired and alone, with a heart heavy as an ancient stone,
Without a shelter for the soul, wandering among shadows,
Without friends on this earth who know my worth,
No one beside me, not even those who bear my name.
Abandoned by all, my call is lost in the wind,
Until suddenly, I heard a voice,
Sweet and gentle, like a song from long ago,
And I knew he would give everything for me,
I felt I was more than just a lost dream.
It was love at first sight, the ring shone like a star,
A life once meaningless found its purpose,
I loved him with all my heart and soul,
His smile, his words, echoed within me like a refrain.
Life was now sweet, like an endless spring,
I was never alone again,
I found a happy home, a place where dreams come to life,
My life was now like a leaf bathed in sunlight.
Never abandoned again, after he took my hand,
His gaze seeking my face made me feel heaven on earth,
But now I am alone again... in our precious home,
Life has left him, flowers bloom on his grave,
And I wonder, how long will it be until I meet him again?
Time flows like a silent river, and longing stretches like a shadow,
One day, perhaps, we will meet again, in the place where the sky kisses the earth,
Until then, my love remains like an unextinguished flame,
Guiding me through the darkness, toward the light of his memory.
