Back Some Day

 

The Captain used to send me this song in his emails to me when we were in the long distance phase of our relationship. He would travel from North Carolina to Florida so we could spend time with each other to see for sure if what we had developed online worked in real life.


Every time he visited, the hardest thing was to say goodbye and not know when he would be visiting again. That is how it was between the visits and the returns home until he moved in with me forever. The words to this song bring back all the feelings. I could play this song over and over again, enjoy the wonderful memories and hate the tears because he is gone.



Long distance relationships do work and more importantly, internet relationships can move on to forever if you have the patience for it. It is an awesome way to get to know each other.

Single and feel a spark for someone online? Opportunity is knocking (read that post) and you need to listen. It may be something that can develop into something more.


Back Some Day|Blue lyrics

If you're alone
I want you to know
I'll be back some day
If you're alone
I want you to know
I'll be back some day
It's time for me to have to go away for so long to make our own paradise
But dreams don't come easy you've gotta believe me, you know this deep inside
But it's not long now till I'm on my way
I keep wishing tomorrow was yesterday
You're my everything that won't disappear
Girl you've got nothing to fear
If you're alone, I want you to know
I'll be back someday, don't you ever let go
Baby, hold tight through the cold lonely night
Just wait for me till I get home
When you're on your own, I want you to know
I'll be there for you, I could never let go
I realize that you want me to stay, but hold on
I'll be back someday (be back someday, someday)
When I return, I wanna see this beautiful baby who's still loving me
With tears in her eyes but a smile on her face impatiently we'll embrace
But it's not long now, till' I'm on my way
I keep praying tomorrow was yesterday
You're my everything that won't disappear
Girl you've got nothing to fear
If you're alone, I want you to know
I'll be back someday, don't you ever let go
Baby, hold tight through the cold lonely night
Just wait for me till I get home
When you're on your own, I want you to know
I'll be there for you, I could never let go
I realize that you want me to stay but hold on
I'll be back someday
And when I go
I'll be loving you still
Baby you will never know
Just how lonely I'll feel
You know I really gotta go
But I wish I could stay
Hold on (just hold on)
I'll be back, I'll be back...
If you're alone, I want you to know
I'll be back someday, don't you ever let go
Baby, hold tight through the cold lonely night, just wait for me till I get home
When you're on your own, I want you to know
I'll be there for you, I could never let go
I realize that you want me to stay but hold on
I'll be back someday
If you're alone, I want you to know
I'll be back someday, don't you ever let go
Baby, hold tight through the cold lonely night
Just wait for me till I get home
