It was written in the stars
On the pages of my heart
Oh, that someday I would find
The love I feel for you tonight
On the ocean of our dreams
Like a prayer you came to me
And the longing that had been
Found its ending in your eyes
And I am missing you tonight

Chorus
I really want to see you
I really want to touch you
If only I could hold you...in my arms again
I really want to reach you
Forever to be with you
If only I could hold you...in my arms again

Across the waves, across the sea
Separating you from me
Here’s a promise and it’s mine
I will love you for all time
I’m wishing you were here tonight
