Would that I could...

Would that I could, my dear, to bridge the gap betwixt
Across the plains or distant seas
Fleet of foot or wing
To find you once more in life
But not the dream 
Though dreams of you I desire

Would that I could, my dear, to hold you close
As closely held you should be
With warmth I would fill
Your earthly soul
What warmth I can give
Yours to keep
Though long for your warmth I do

Would that I could, my dear, to be with you
To stroke your hair
Feel your skin
Share the joy you bring to me
Would that I could.
