Coming home to Christina

Just Dello 2021 (Beijing)



Dearest Christina you are my sweet world, I love you, I will be home soon to see your beautiful eyes. You are a blessing to my life, you bring me much happiness and joy in every single day of my life, thank you, my love, for care and love for me
Sometimes when you're all alone, feeling lonely and so blue,
wondering if I'm even thinking of you.
Thinking I might find somebody else in the places that I go,
but girl there's some things you really ought to know.

Forever and a day is how long I want you.
Forever and a day I'll always be true.
Just keep on believing the words that I say –
I will always love you forever and a day.

Far across the country, without you all night long,
wondering what you're thinking and wondering if I'm wrong.
The pain and the sorrow is much more than I can bear,
all I want to do is reach out and tell you how much I care.

Forever and a day is how long I want you.
Forever and a day I'll always be true.
Just keep on believing the words that I say –
I will always love you forever and a day.

I'm feeling like a stranger without you all the time.
You're wondering if I'll believe you or if I'll say goodbye.
I don't know what's going on, don't know where you've been,
but if my love can't trust you, it would be my biggest sin.

Forever and a day is how long I want you.
Forever and a day I'll always be true.
Just keep on believing the words that I say –
I will always love you forever and a day
