Night Gives Way To Day The night slowly gives way to day
My true love is far away
I see her face in the stars above
All around I feel her love
Each new day we spend apart
I hold her image close to my heart
I look at the pictures of her and me
Knowing that she's always thinking of me
I close my eyes and touch her face
Feeling her warm embrace
Wishing I was with her now
Wishing we were together now
I hear her voice call to me
As a new day begins
I can feel her tears fall
I know she needs me
I reach out to touch her face again
I see her smile in the clouds
The wind blows the cloud away
Once more the image of her is gone
I look around the room
At the pictures on the wall
I see my wife and children there
Once more I'm able to smile
I switch off the light
As the sun rises high
I hear my wife and children say
They miss me terribly
I get undressed, climb into bed
Tears are in my eyes
The place where my wife should be
Is a cold and empty space
I know that when she goes to bed
There's an empty space next to her
One day soon I'll be there
Laying next to her
I know it seems a long way off
I know it's hard for her and me
But one day soon I will be there
Home where I'm meant to be

For my dearest wife Emmy. I miss you
more than words can say. My heart and
soul will always belong to you my love.
Each day we are apart I'll miss you more
and more yet at the same time my love
for you will continue to grow.
