When Will I See You Again

When will I see you again?

When will I see you again, when will I touch your face,

When will I feel your kiss upon my lips?

When will our time come, time for us?

When will the universe cease its fight, to keep our love apart?

When will we be free to love, as we long to love each other?

When will I see you again?

Love comes softly into our lives, and often we miss the chance,

To know its beauty and feel it’s caress.

I long to touch you, kiss and fondle you,

My heart aches to hold you in my arms.

When will I see you again?

Shall we wait for forever to bring us together?

Can we live such an existence?

Day by day, word by word, our hearts grow closer,

Fonder and fuller of love for each other.

Will time diminish our feelings?

Will distance tarnish our emotions?

When will I see you again?

If I call for you late in the night,

Will you hear my plea?

When the fears of the world are upon me,

When the darkness controls my heart,

Will you come for me and take my hand,

And touch my longing heart?

When will I see you again?

Touch me softly before I go,

Take my hand within yours,

Kiss my lips and touch my face.

Love me for a moment longer,

For destiny may work against us,

In our desire for each other.

When will I see you again?
