Analysis of My Dear Scottish



I close my eyes and I see your smile
I close my ears and I hear your laugh
I wish to God we weren't separated
By all these damn miles.

When I talk to you everyday
My hearts races like a horse
There are so many things I want to say
But cannot find the right words.

All I know is how much I love you
Like I never loved before
You are a part of me now
The one I've been waiting my whole life for.

I want to be a part of you
As you are a part of me
You make me so very happy
Open up your eyes and see

You invade my thoughts
And have stolen my heart
Because of all this
I know now, we can never be apart.
