Last night, I said goodbye 

Now--it seems year 

I'm back in the city 

Where nothing is clear 

But thoughts of me --holding you 

Bringing us near 

And tell me 

When will our eyes meet 

When can I touch you 

When will this strong yearning end 

And when 

Will I hold you again 

Time, in New England 

Took me away 

To long rocky beaches 

--and you, by the bay 

We started a story Whose ende must now wait 

And, tell me 

When will our eyes meet 

When can I touch you 

When will this strong yearning end 

And when 

Will I hold you again 

I feel the change comin' 

--I feel the wind blow 

I feel brave and daring! 

I feel my blood flow 

With you 

I can bring out 

All the love, that I have 

--With you there's a heaven 

So earth ain't so bad 

And tell me 

When will our eyes meet 

When can I touch you 

When will this strong yearning end 

And when 

Will I hold you again
