Sitting here Where your body lies Your heart deafened Your life gone by As the birds chirp And life chatters away I hear you Loud and clear on this day Your life beckons Full And dear I miss you Ouma My partner in crime My maat My beste vriend Ek mis ons gesprekke In Afrikaans Ek mis jou lag Jou Rooi rosige wange Jy En Ek sit hier Sonder jou I haven't felt myself since you've been gone I've been empty Waiting For someone to help this yearning This longing in my heart I sit beside your grave Tears clenched in my eyes Holding back my own life I miss you Ouma I miss you so And forever I will be empty Without you As I am Yearning For you so.

Yearning
Sitting here Where your body lies Your heart deafened Your life gone by As the birds chirp And life chatters away I hear you Loud and clear on this day Your life beckons Full And dear I miss you Ouma My partner in crime My maat My beste vriend Ek mis ons gesprekke In Afrikaans Ek mis jou lag Jou Rooi rosige wange Jy En Ek sit hier Sonder jou I haven't felt myself since you've been gone I've been empty Waiting For someone to help this yearning This longing in my heart I sit beside your grave Tears clenched in my eyes Holding back my own life I miss you Ouma I miss you so And forever I will be empty Without you As I am Yearning For you so.
