When I close my eyes to sleep

When I close my eyes to sleep
My heart still lies awake
My mind goes to my homeland
As my soul makes my escape
I dream that I fly through the air
Over the miles of land ...
And then I come to your front door
Where my soul will always stand
I look all around me ... smell and feel
The beauty of my home
To where I’ve always loved to be
During the time I’ve grown
I go wandering to find you
To be able to hold you close and near
Which makes my soul dance ...
Takes away my sorrows and fear
For only a few minutes I am with you
And then I have to go
Back over the land, sea and mountains
To where the strange winds blow
But I will be back ... I promise you
Along with my soul and heart
For no matter the distance between us
We will never be apart ....
