Portion of Lyrics:
 It's getting near dawn
When lights close their tired eyes
I'll soon be with you, my love
Give you my dawn surprise
I'll be with you, darling, soon
I'll be with you when the stars start falling
I've been waiting so long
To be where I'm going
In the sunshine of your love
I'm with you, my love
 
Helpful hint when learning this song:
 
The song melody contains accidentals.  An accidental is a note that doesn’t normally occur within the key and it will last for the length of the measure.  In measures 1, 3,5 ,7 there is a G# accidental.  The other accidental listed in the song on the next page is in measure 8 and is a Gb.  Understand the accidentals and it will make learning this song much easier.
