The anguished plea of a separated soul mate


 

                                                  Heart and Soul:
                      One Last Dream

                                                  (Authored and Recited by Richard Lee Orey)

 

 

                      O, Dear Heart
                        There never can be another
                        You are my heart and soul

                        The hurt of being alone
                        Lingers as time stands still
                        My need a growing pain
                        Your love my only fill
                        The memory of your company
                        Watches over my aching soul
                        The absence of your loving heart
                        Leaving a vacant hole
                        I search my deadened mind
                        To know again your joyful love
                        No way on Earth to compensate
                        Your love now up above
                        O, the angels in God's Heaven
                        Know the secret of your role
                        For there never can be another
                        You are my heart and soul
                        There never can be another
                        You are my heart and soul
                        How to know God's will is done
                        When my ache remains so strong
                        Every moment of every hour
                        Tells me where you belong
                        And so I beg for mercy
                        And the pleasure of your life
                        Resurrection and renewal
                        As my first and only wife
                        I ask for one last dream
                        To hold you close once more
                        And breathe with you as one
                        As we enter Heaven's Door
                        O, the angels in God's Heaven
                        Know the secret of your role
                        For there never can be another
                        You are my heart and soul
                        There never can be another
                        You are my heart and soul
