Still Waiting for You

I call out to the one I once loved.

To the man whose kiss I've managed to memorize.

To the man with the golden touch and piercing eyes.

I call out to him today in hopes that he will come.

For I've waited patiently for him to find his way to me.

I call now for the man who walks in and out of my dreams.

The man who is strong,

but whose touch is tender as a summer breeze.

The man who shows no fear,

and who loves unconditionally.

I call now that man in hopes that he will come.

For I have waited patiently for him to find his way to me.

Please, God, tell me if all my calls are in vain.

For I call out every night,

yet the same answer I keep getting.

So far and yet so near.

Come to me, my Love

is all I hear.
