Donna Hughes - Longing for You Lyrics

Verse 1 I’m longing for you
Like a flower wants the rain
I’m longing for you
Like a poor man needs his pay
Late at night
Somewhere beneath the moon
Wherever you are, I am longing for you

Verse 2 I’m longing for you
From a sailboat on the sea
I’m longing for you
From a crowded city street
Late at night,
All the towns I’m passin through
I try to forget
That I am longing for you

Chorus As I sail across the ocean, margaritas in my hand
My happiness lasted, long as footprints in the sand
I was hoping that the mountains, held the magic they once knew
But without you they were lonesome, making me blue

Verse 3 I’m longing for you
As the morning colors fill the sky
I’m longing for you
As I watch the days go by
Late at night, as the boats come off the sea
And the lights are going down
Are you longing for me?

Chorus As I sail across the ocean, margaritas in my hand
My happiness lasted, long as footprints in the sand
I was hoping that the mountains, held the magic they once had
But without you they were lonesome, making me sad

From the salt beneath the ocean, to the highest mountain I ever knew
You’ll find me out there somewhere, longing for you
