Alone I stand ready and strong,
the wars gone on just too long,
you went away but stayed so near,
why are you the thoughts i hear?

I hear your name all through the night,
i cry and cry all through my strife,
to keep from letting you get the best of me,
why oh why did you leave me?

You left me so long ago,
way before it even snowed.
Your presence still remains here,
and it won't leave me alone.

My heart still beats for you,
my pain for you is here,
you stay so near,
and you won't come to me.

Come over,
come over,
come over,
come over,
come back to me.

Alone I stand ready and strong,
the wars gone on just too long,
you stayed away but your names too clear,
why are you the thoughts i hear?

I love you!
