8. A song for while I'm away (5:10)
These words I wrote, play and sing to you
Do not convey the love I brought and bring to you
For this is a song for while I'm away
To say all the things I'd love to say
You are my life, my everything, you're all I have
You are my hopes, my dreams, my world come true
You're all I have
Please heed me now these words I have to say
Now I'm headed for the border
You see this song it ends right at the start
I swore when I was younger
No one would win my heart
And far away hills look greener still
But soon they'll all slip away
It's then I'll be returning
And I'll be coming home to stay
You are my life, my everything, you're all I have
You are my hopes, my dreams, my world come true
You're all I have
Please heed me now these words I have to say
Do not convey the love I brought and bring to you
For this is a song for while I'm away
To say all the things I'd love to say
You are my life, my everything, you're all I have
You are my hopes, my dreams, my world come true
You're all I have
Please heed me now these words I have to say
Now I'm headed for the border
You see this song it ends right at the start
I swore when I was younger
No one would win my heart
And far away hills look greener still
But soon they'll all slip away
It's then I'll be returning
And I'll be coming home to stay
You are my life, my everything, you're all I have
You are my hopes, my dreams, my world come true
You're all I have
Please heed me now these words I have to say
