This song is dedicated to my wife Sarah, who will be missing me for four days. This song speaks directly to that.
Hard to believe that we’ve been married for almost 6 years now (next month!) and have yet to be apart more than a single night during that time.

lyrics:
These Minnesota nights
They can get so lonely
And every time I close my eyes
I dream of you onlyAnd it’s hard to stay apart like this so long
Some nights I wonder how I can go onCHORUS:
Oh how I wish that I
Could reach out into the darkness
And feel you there
And share a special moment
That only we can share
But love can be so cruel
And life unfair
But it’s enough to know that you care
It’s enough to know that you careAnd just beyond the edge of sight
I think I can see you smiling
Your love, a candle in the night
Leads me to you, my darlingAnd it hurts so bad just wishing you were
Until then, know I’m thinking of you dearCHORUS
Just how long ’til I can hold you once again?
I know I’ll see you someday, love, but when?CHORUS
It’s enough to know that you care
It’s enough to know that you care
