Forever And A Day

Intro Verse When the cold nights of winter weigh heavy on my mind I walk down to the river to ease my worried mind I can see the reflection of the moon on every ice floe in the bay And I know that you’ll soon be on your way Verse And when the pines stand tall and silent, beneath the starry sky The letter that you wrote me, I read a thousand times I can see the reflection of your face on every ice floe in the bay And I know that you’ll soon be on your way Come back home to the ones that love you true Come back home to the ones that miss you so Seems like you were gone forever But for you I’ll wait forever and a day And I know that you’ll soon be on your way Instrumental Verse When the first rays of sunshine, come melt the night away On the day you return, I will walk down to the bay And I’ll wait by the water, ‘til the ship pulls in that took you far away Oh, mother dear, I miss you more each day Verse And my brother and my father, I know they miss you, too The waiting would be easy, if only we could know Have you reached your destination in some far off shore, wherever it may lay? And I know that you’ll soon be on your way Come back home to the ones that love you true Come back home to the ones that miss you so Seems like you were gone forever But for you I’ll wait forever and a day And I know that you’ll soon be on your way Instrumental Seems like you've been gone forever But for you I’ll wait forever and a day And I know that you’ll soon be on your way
