Antiphon

Across these fields we wandered when
There was a you and I:
I call for you across the way
And wait for your reply

I’m here, I’m always here for you,
My promises I keep;
I said I’d wait forever, so
Forever here, I’ll sleep

The wind is slow and solemn, and
The sun, it fairly crawls:
I wait for you to answer
As the night in silence falls

I’m here, I’m always here for you,
I said I’d never stray;
I said I would be faithful, love,
So here, I’ll always stay

I’m lonely now without you, love,
Far more than I can tell

But I will wait forever, love,
Till you lay down as well

Your voice still seems so clear –

I’m here my love —
I’m here —
