I'm counting down the days

Waiting for next July

All of my friends await

This child so fine

You're still a world away

So close but so far away

I feel you now and then

It's like I know you but not quite

Like I know you but not quite

Dreaming inside me all the time

Wherever I go you're on my mind

Oh child of mine

I see you vividly but I'm just imagining

When you arrive from me the songs we will sing

The songs we will sing

Dreaming inside me all the time

Wherever I go you're on my mind

Oh child of mine
