I watch the night darkness slowly descend,
Another lonely day has reached it's end,
Longing for my special someone by my side,
The emptiness is like a river, deep and wide,
...
The mist hangs just above the glistening water,
Slowly spreading its cold, eerie fingers across the land,
The darken water is smooth as new spun glass,
With not a ripple breaking its placid surface,
...
When I look at that rugged cross,
I think of what it cost,
As my tears begin to weep,
I think of Mary at His feet,
...
She sent me away, so she could play,
It's better for you to go away,
Home you can come, when I have a mate,
I was only a child of eight, for such a fate,
...
The sun is setting with it's warm glow,
Reds and Pinks and Oranges flow,
The darkness begins to push its way,
Trying to end another day,
...
