version below from the album "Greatest Hits"

Last night, I waved goodbye, now it seems years
I'm back in the city, where nothing is clear
But thoughts of me, holding you, bringing us near

And tell me
When will our eyes meet?
When can I touch you?
When will this strong yearning end?
And when will I hold you again?

Time in New England, took me away
Long rocky beaches and you by the bay
We started a story whose end must now wait

And tell me
When will our eyes meet?
When can I touch you?
When will this strong yearning end?
And when will I hold you again?

I feel the change coming, I feel the wind blow
I feel brave and daring, I feel my blood flow, oh
With you I could bring out all the love that I have
With you there's a heaven, so earth ain't so bad

And tell me
When will our eyes meet?
When can I touch you?
When will this strong yearning end?
And when will I hold you again?

And tell me
When will our eyes meet?
When can I touch you?
When will this strong yearning end?
And when will I hold you again?
