Across the stars
And across the sea,
May homeward winds bring you
Back to me.
A love is strong,
A love so long,
It surpasses that of
Annabel Lee,
As a soldier you’re sound,
A man of might,
Please come home safe,
And hold me tight.
My best friend,
My true other half,
Going a day without you
And I’d be daft.
There’s one thing
I really must say,
And that my dear,
I will say today.
I love you
