    The Longing

     So many roads I've traveled
    So many more to go
    In my search for all the answers
    To the questions I have known

    I have walked the straight and narrow
    And the long and winding road
    Ever searching for a place
    That I can call my own

    I have no one here beside me
    Though I long for a womans touch
    To ease the pain of loneliness
    And surround my heart with love

    In the stillness of the evening
    I can hear her call my name
    From across the open valley
    Through the highest mountain range

    I search for her from dawn til dusk
    Never knowing where she may be
    Wondering if my longing
    Is merely a fantasy

    I want to lay beside her
    By the coolness of a stream
    To touch her on the shoulders
    And be her every dream

    I'll follow my heart til I find her
    Where 'er the seeds of love may roam
    Bringing our two hearts together
    In a place we can call home

    there's nothing i can say other then this how i feel, the longing one suffers, never knowing if it's all in vain or worth the crippling pain.
