Lyrics and music by Yehuda Carmel.

As you are far away on your journey,
and you fly under skies that are blue,
don't forget that you left me so lonely,
with the thought of you only,
while I'm waiting for you.

As you see all the wonders of china,
or you watch from the sierra the view,
don't forget just for you I am craving,
all my love I am saving,
while I'm waiting for you.

Since you went away,
my heart found no peace, my baby,
each night I hope and I pray for your return.

If you'll send souvenirs from an island,
or a pearl from the shores of Peru,
than I'll know that you'll soon be returning,
oh, my dear I am yearning,
while I'm waiting for you.
