Solitary Summer Without You

You disappeared one sunny summer day
Leaving not even a trace nor heart filled goodbye
I knew I couldn't cry because I know you'll come back to me
Some day that's filled with warmth and the essence of the flowers that are in bloom

But until that day your memory will give me passionate company
I'll hold your sweet smile close to my heart, and that smile will keep me content
Keep me from sadness, fear, and regret for not running after you
And save me from my painful loneliness

That splendid summer that we ran hand in hand over the fields of flowers
And that starry night you took my childhood in your stride
Will be an everlasting time I never will forget
And a time that I joyously dream of even when you are near

That summer, you and I shared an enchanting dream
As each heated night we slept side by side
Holding each other as we looked up at the Sea of Stars
Dreaming of one day journeying to that vast sea together

Now this solitary summer you are gone and I realize how much I love you
How much I long to run to your strong and protective arms
And in your arms feel your heart beating in warm rhythm with mine
Knowing that one day you and I will journey to the Sea of Stars
