Longing


 

Sing to me sweet absent lover
songs sung soft as silk and satin
sing to me ‘cross this summer sea

a beautiful melody
about how the world is ours
and that perfect moment when
fair winds of love
sail you back to me

bringing soft kisses
like honeyed cream
to quench my thirst
one golden kiss
to last eternity

take me timeless
in love’s neverending dream
please come back to me
my sweet absent lover
carry me off to ecstasy

  1. I can imagine this person calling to their long-lost loving, Rob.
    I can’t believe how young Carole King and James Taylor are in the video! Still a great song.
