My eyes full of sorrow and despair
My voice low and gentle
My lips thin and bloodless
Wanting to cry
but unable to
Why did I lie
Then finally tell you
I love to see your smile
I love to hear your laugh
Ill have to wait a while
About 9 months and a 1/2
You mean so much to me
I cant wait untell you get back
My eyes are open and I can see
Never a smile did you and I lack
