These words I wrote, play and sing to you
Do not convey the love I brought and bring to you
For this is a song for while I´m away
To say all the things I´d love to say

You are my life, my everything, you´re all I have
You are my hopes, my dreams, my world come true
You´re all I have
Please heed me now these words I have to say

Now I´m headed for the border
You see this song it ends right at the start
I swore when I was younger
No one would win my heart

And far away hills look greener still
But soon they´ll all slip away
It´s then I´ll be returning
And I´ll be coming home to stay

You are my life, my everything, you´re all I have
You are my hopes, my dreams, my world come true
You´re all I have
Please heed me now these words I have to say
