Waiting (O Mistress Mine)

Lyrics

The Royal Air Force has enjoyed a good days flight, with excellent weather over Iraq. The army has been continuing to prepare for the coming land battle, and I can report on the arrangements being made for handling prisoners of war...
 O mistress mine
 Where are you roaming?
 O stay and hear
 Your true loves coming
 That can sing both high and low
 Trip no further pretty sweeting
 Journeys end in lovers meeting
 Every wise mans son doth know
 What comes now has gone tomorrow
 Present smiles are full of sorrow
 But I see you in my mind
 From the shadows of my memory
 I can feel you walking near me
 And I'm waiting for the rain to fall
 Dust from your eyes
 Angels are falling
 From distant fears
 Your cold hearts beating
 I can see you in the dark
 Or the flicker of a daydream
 From the edge of silent tears
 I remember and I smile
 What is love?
 Tis not hereafter
 Present mirth
 Hath present laughter
 What's to come is still unsure
 In delay there lies no plenty
 Then come kiss me sweet and twenty
 Youths a stuff twill not endure
