Your Love Knows How

My heart is heavy and sad with yearning.
I sit and wait for you.
The winter is almost over, my darling,
the air is crisp and cool.

I move like a ghost in the afternoons.
I float throughout the days.
At night I lie under the coverlet,
seeking your warm embrace.

Your face, it haunts my waking hours.
Your absence chills me to the bone.
Without you I am forever lost, my dear,
forever lonely and alone.

For desperation has me in its grip,
I see nothing for me now.
Only you can release me from this lightless prison.
Only your love knows how.
