The Time That Comes Between

In the darkened morn you left me
And you made but not a sound
Your eyes met mine so briefly
My heart it broke in two
Where’er you go come home to me
Where the fire always burns
Let it lead you back to my love
Let the heat light up your soul

How far we are could not keep us apart
Keep me in mind, keep me safe in your heart
Carry me, oh carry me and know you’ll be with me
Patiently I’m living with the time that comes between

One night as I lay sleeping
I saw you in my dreams
In a boat on deep blue oceans
You sailed so far from me
I watched you from the stony shore
‘Til I could see no more
Even in my dreams you are out of reach
Not a sign is sent to me

How far we are could not keep us apart
Keep me in mind, keep me safe in your heart
Carry me, oh carry me and know you’ll be with me
Patiently I’m living with the time that comes between

How far we are could not keep us apart
Keep me in mind, keep me safe in your heart
Carry me, oh carry me and know you’ll be with me
Patiently I’m living with the time that comes between
