Lyrics

Wait for me girl
I won't be away for very long
I'll do my tour
and then I'll be home
again with you.

Pray for me my love
there's danger where I go
we both know,
I'll keep you in my heart and my soul,
till I'm home again with you.

I'll dream of you every night
we'll fly high in those Astral Sky's

Sacrifice, time spent away
from loved ones,
to do a thing that so many
have done, so unselfishly

Instrumental

I'll dream of you every night
we'll fly high in those Astral Sky's

Missing you is all I do when I'm away
what gets me through
is the knowing that we
will be together again

Don't you worry baby
I'll be fine while I'm away
And I'll be thinking of you
and when I'll see you again
Oh Babe.

loving you in those Astral Sky's
repeats & fade...

Loving you in those Astral sky's
repeat & fade.
