Last night, I waved goodbye   Now it seems years   I'm back in the city, where nothin' is clear   But thoughts of me, holdin' you, bringin' us near      And tell me   When will our eyes meet   When can I touch you?   When will this strong yearnin' end?   And when will I hold you again?      Time in New England took me away   Long rocky beaches and you by the bay   We started a story whose end must now wait      And tell me   When will our eyes meet   When can I touch you?   When will this strong yearnin' end?   And when will I hold you again?      I feel the change comin'   I feel the wind blow   I feel brave and daring   I feel my blood flow, oh      With you I could bring out all the love that I have   With you there's a heaven, so earth ain't so bad again...      And tell me   When will our eyes meet   When can I touch you?   When will this strong yearnin' end?   And when will I hold you again?
