Distant Stranger
Love of youth
Love of ages
Long withdrawing
Long receding
Stranger of the past
Yet I feel you
As though breathing in my ear
Yet I hear you
Presence lingering near
Distant stranger
Born of distant paths
I remember
Promised love that lasts
And forever my longing heart will seek
You, distant stranger…
‘‘Tis YOU my heart e’er keeps
Distant stranger,
Be aloof no longer
Draw now nearer
Be no more
A stranger
Love of ages
Long withdrawing
Long receding
Stranger of the past
Yet I feel you
As though breathing in my ear
Yet I hear you
Presence lingering near
Distant stranger
Born of distant paths
I remember
Promised love that lasts
And forever my longing heart will seek
You, distant stranger…
‘‘Tis YOU my heart e’er keeps
Distant stranger,
Be aloof no longer
Draw now nearer
Be no more
A stranger
