Far too long locked-down from you I am away,
while a virus do bring only death and pain
and daily for humanity and you I do pray
and I believe to me you have been destined from birth,
where in this life we do for each other exist
and to me you are an angel dwelling on earth,
where you do bring happiness and bliss day by day
and when I loose in life with you I do still gain.
Far too long locked-down from you I am away,
and when other people despise me you see worth.
In the act of love moments are eternal and we feel immortal,
as if in the past, present and future together we exist
and locked-down so very much with you I want to stay
but the impediments of stringent measures do remain
and daily for humanity and you I do pray,
where we like all of mankind we are only mortal,
and I beg God to lives and situations around to turn.
In the act of love moments are eternal and we feel immortal
where here I do holy intimate things to the world betray,
and living without you my life is totally in vain.
Far too long locked-down from you I am away
and I remember Balito's beaches and on your skin the sunburn,
I recall how that holiday did both joy and pain at times bring,
and I beg God to lives and situations around to turn,
as in all of life He does know the very best way,
that He will our love and all of humanity sustain
and daily for humanity and you I do pray,
where I do need Him and you in everything.
In this life the only true wife I have found in you,
I recall how that holiday did both joy and pain at times bring
and want to go with you again away without delay,
I do beg God to your life and existence to maintain.
Far too long locked-down from you I am away
and daily for humanity and you I do pray,
that God will accompany you in everything that you do
and I believe to me you have been destined from birth.
In this life the only true wife I have found in you
and to me you are an angel dwelling on earth.
