A touch of sadness

There's a touch of sadness in my eyes
Tears keep slipping freely by and by...
I am lonely without you by my side
For I miss you...want to kiss you...
Yes there's loneliness for you...
Are not with me: you are so far away...

There's a touch of gladness in my heart
For I know that once we are together
Once this blessed loving starts
We will never ever part...never be apart
For God promised you are meant for me

There's a touch of madness in my life
After all the ups and downs I've seen
There are some things no-one could believe
But still I know that God is real: I feel it
Yes I believe it: deep inside there is a seed

There's a touch of sadness in my eyes
Though I know you will come from blue skies
Dear Lord there is so much pain unrealised
Wars and rumours of wars to come...
Until that awful day is finally done...
