I long to be long
in your arms
in your hand-hold
my love
how I long to belong
I long to be bold
with your charms
measured tenfold
my love
how I long to be bold
I love to be loved
by your caresses blessed
how I love to be loved
my beloved
So I’m ending my song
with a kiss and a blessing
I wait
where I long to belong…
