No-one now to share your dreams,
To walk beside those mountain streams,
To hold your ailing, trembling hand,
To write sweet nothings in the sand;
No-one to whisper “I love you”,
To keep you warm the winter through,
To share with you first buds of spring,
To show their love in a wedding ring.
No-one at home for you to say,
“I missed you my love, at work today”
To sit together at evening meal,
To tell each other just how you feel,
No-one there to forgive you gladly,
All those times you behaved so badly,
To visit your own sweet secret place,
Suspended somewhere in time and space.
No-one knows how much you cared,
Just you two and the time you shared,
Memories now left of bygone years,
The good times, bad, and all the tears.
No-one realizes just how lonely,
When ‘we two’… becomes ‘me only’,
God loans us soul mates, for a fleeting while,
Through His loving Grace…once again we’ll smile.
