Love of My Life
Dougal & DNA Lyrics

You've moved away, England just isn't the same
Since you left, England feels different and empty without you

And I think about you every morning
Every morning, you are the first thought that crosses my mind

I'm saving to see you, I wish that money wasn't an issue
I am working hard to save money so that I can afford to visit you, wishing that finances were not a barrier

And the time zones didn't stop us from calling
I wish the time difference between us didn't hinder our ability to talk to each other

My darling I know that you had to go
My dear, I understand that you had to leave

And find a life for yourself
And explore and build a fulfilling life for your own sake

But darling I hope that you keep me close
But I genuinely hope that you still hold me dear in your heart

And read these letters aloud
And take the time to read these letters out loud, perhaps as a reminder of our connection

Despite a thousand miles between us you and I sit at each end
Even though we are separated by a vast distance of a thousand miles, we still exist at opposite ends of this world

Of this world we are under the same stars
In this vast universe, we both reside beneath the same sky filled with stars

Writing letters to each other, send my love to your mother
We communicate by writing letters to each other, and please convey my affection to your mother

You're in my heart no matter where you are
You hold a special place in my heart regardless of your physical location

With my love always
My love for you will always remain constant

Send a photograph, you're growing up so fast
Please send me a picture as you are maturing rapidly

And if I can't see you these pictures will have to do
And if I cannot physically be with you, I will rely on these pictures to feel connected

A Christmas in the heat seems so strange to me
Experiencing Christmas in a warm climate feels unfamiliar and peculiar to me

The only thing I wish for this year is to see you
My sole desire for this year is to meet you in person

I booked my flights today I'm finally gonna see your face
Today, I made the arrangements for my flights, and soon I will have the joy of seeing your beautiful face

But until then I'm only a letter away
But until that moment arrives, I am just a letter's distance from you

So darling I hope that you keep me close
Thus, my dear, I sincerely hope that you continue to hold me close in your thoughts and heart

And read these letters aloud
And devote time to reading these letters aloud, fostering a sense of our connection

With my love always
With my unwavering love that persists through all circumstances

With my love always
With my love that remains constant and everlasting

With my love always
With my enduring love that will never fade
