now is the time for you
all my thoughts and hopes
deep in the heart of me
which I have entrusted to you
I see you there
and all I know is you
and how you are
the way you smile so gently
never harsh or unkind
giving always of yourself
now is the time for you
and for me
and for us
my hopes are so high
they could caress the clouds
while whispering your name
as on earth I twist and turn
with the deepest love burning my soul
because now is the time for you
that one who makes me flush to red
who cares only for others
who I could never match in greatness
who I cannot stop loving
so now is the time for you
and the heart which is entrusted to you

"Then all my pleasure is but pain
My cares they do increase
Until I see your face again"
