I Shall Be Waiting - Vera Lynn, Arthur Young

I’m looking for a star tonight

The star we looked for so long ago

I’m wondering how you are tonight

I hope that your alright

And want you to know dear

I shall be waiting as the days go slowly by

I shall be waiting though the poppies bloom and die

Each day at sunset and with every morning too

I won’t forget to say a prayer for you

In the firelight gleaming yourface I seem to see

My eyes grow dim with dreaming you are so near to me

I shall be waiting though the years may come and go

I shall be waiting dear I love you so

I shall be waiting though the years may come and go

I shall be waiting dear I love you so
