A Song For While I'm Away

These words I wrote, play and sing for 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 sayYou 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 sayNow 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 heartYou 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 sayYou 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 sayFar 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 stayYou 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 sayYou 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
