In my heart you've made your home.
Never from it must you roam.
And though now you're far away,
in my heart you may stay.
Then I woke and could not find,
Sign of you left behind.
I began to fret, where had you gone?
Is not this heart where you belong?
Behind my wisdom I did search,
Perhaps over my worry you had perched?
I could not find you with my concern,
Nor were you with all for which I yearn.
I wracked my mind with worries worst,
Planning for pain and feeling cursed,
So far away will love ever be?
My beloved is gone where I cannot see!
Then when I'd all but given up,
You stir beside me, waking up.
'Beloved, what is wrong My dear?
Why are you bothered with such fear?'
I look and see that all the while,
You were sleeping peacefully with a smile.
For in my heart you ever stay,
Even when you're far away.
