Hearing your voice again was heaven sent,
I don’t think you know how much it meant.
To feel your smile
Across the miles.

It’s so important to me,
Even though your face I can’t see.
It always feels oh, so great,
To know I put a smile upon your handsome face.

There were people all around you,
So, you couldn’t say “I love you too.”
It came time you had to go,
All you could say was “Ditto.”

But I knew what that meant,
Even though the words weren’t spent.
Even “Ditto” means the world to me,
For I know it means that you love ME.

Some day you may hold me tight,
But for now, I’ll hold you in my dreams each night.
I close my eyes for your face to see,
Seeing you looking back at me.

And oh, your loving touch,
Makes me feel so much.
So much pleasure,
More than I can measure.

It also brings to me great pain,
Knowing I’ll wake without you again.
I have a place all yours inside my heart,
And without you here, the beating doesn’t start.

I guess I must let you go for now,
Hoping we can be together somehow.
Take my love with you, as you go,
For it’s yours, I love you so.
