From the recording Raven Heart
My man has an inherent understanding that music is my life. There's a knowing that sometimes we would be together and sometimes we would be a half a world away. But, no matter how far I travel or how long I'm gone - I'll always come back.
Lyrics
Forty Nights
© Rachel Lynn Sebastian & Bryan Lettner
I’ll tell you again -
my heart stays with you
But, I need to go and do what I do
and I will remember everything
I’ll sing to you every night in the wind
Our love is strong
and I won’t be long
Forty nights
Forty nights
Forty nights I’ll be gone
Forty nights
Forty nights
Forty nights I’ll be gone
I already know
that our love will survive
I already know
that our love is undefiled
and I’ll suffer my temperance
never alone
knowing well that
your angels are calling me home
Our love is strong
and I won’t be long
Forty nights
Forty nights
Forty nights I’ll be gone
Forty nights
Forty nights
Forty nights I’ll be gone
And on the 41st day
when I see you again -
your angels will celebrate,
because your sacred prayer
bade my heart to keep
We’ll have known all along
that our love would stand strong
Forty nights (I’ll come back to you)
Forty nights
Forty nights I’ll be gone
Forty nights (I’ll come back, Baby, I’ll come back)
Forty nights
Forty nights I’ll be gone
Forty nights (Wait for me - wait for me - wait for me)
Forty nights
Forty nights I’ll be gone
Forty nights (I’ll come back - I’ll come back)
Forty nights
Forty nights I’ll be gone
Forty nights (Our love is strong)
Forty nights
Forty nights I’ll be gone
Forty nights (Only forty nights - only forty nights)
Forty nights
Forty nights I’ll be gone
Forty nights (I’ll come back - I’ll come back)
Forty nights
Forty nights I’ll be gone
Forty nights (Wait for me - wait for me - wait for me)
Forty nights
Forty nights I’ll be gone
Forty nights (Oh, I’ll come back - I’ll come back - I’ll come back)
Forty nights
Forty nights I’ll be gone
