The One You Left Behind / Heath & Heather
I have lost my true and only love
To the waves and far away
To the listless sea, the cloudy skies
To a new and distant day
Though I know you must go
It is hard for me and so
In the eventide I cry
And I hope that you will think of me
The one you left behind
Under different skies you'll do His work
Under different stars you'll stay
I pray that when your work is done
That He'll send you home someday
Every thought, every breath
Carries aching emptiness
For your loving arms I sigh
And I pray that you will think of me
The one you left behind
I would travel over water
I would race the river to the sea
I would give my home, my everything
Just to have you here with me
But my heart is alive
To the knowledge of His timing
And so 'tis here I'll stay
'Til He sends you home to me again
To the one you left behind
To the waves and far away
To the listless sea, the cloudy skies
To a new and distant day
Though I know you must go
It is hard for me and so
In the eventide I cry
And I hope that you will think of me
The one you left behind
Under different skies you'll do His work
Under different stars you'll stay
I pray that when your work is done
That He'll send you home someday
Every thought, every breath
Carries aching emptiness
For your loving arms I sigh
And I pray that you will think of me
The one you left behind
I would travel over water
I would race the river to the sea
I would give my home, my everything
Just to have you here with me
But my heart is alive
To the knowledge of His timing
And so 'tis here I'll stay
'Til He sends you home to me again
To the one you left behind
