To hear your voice

by Charlee Hardy
(Tennessee)

There was a day
When I'd set away
Time to make the call.

Just To hear you say
how was your day
To hear your voice at all.

There was a day
I'd sit and wait
For the phone to chime.

For the sound of your voice
my heart it would hoist
But for time, there is none at all

You see, you've left me here
to deal with my tears
to wipe them away all my own.

Now I pray for the day
Getting to heavens gate
to hear your voice once more.
