GONE FOR DAYS
Blow me a kiss in my dream.
To awaken my sleeping soul.
You’re floating on starlight beam.
I’m not in a deep slumber at all.
I can feel the tender caress of your hand.
Your sweet whisper in my ear.
I tried to understand.
The words I barely hear.
You said you love me so much.
I murmur my answer “I love you too.”
In my face I felt your hands tender touch.
Your promise has come true.
You said you will be gone for days.
Only in my dreams you will visit me.
You said when I smell the fragrance of hays.
In dreams together we will be.
That was your promise long ago.
When we still together.
The Lord call you.
We’re separated with one another.
In your bed you said goodbye.
You said you’ll be gone for days.
When you closed your eyes I cried.
I’ve wished I also died.
Yes you’re only gone for days.
Tonight again you’ll come in my dream.
Since you passed away.
At night i’ve wished to see that starlight beam.
