My Dearest
We meet behind the rusted gate
I run to you, I cannot wait
Flowers lay on the ground, a gift for me
And I give you a new, fresh daisy
When we’re together, troubles fade away
So in your comfort I wish to stay
You’re such a good listener, so I choose
To tell you all my tales of blues
When we're together, time flies by
But you never respond, I wonder why?
Your touch is sweet, like a gentle bee
As you play with my hair and whisper softly
Or is that just the wind playing tricks on me
I thought I saw you clearly
But it's extremely dark and misty
And my mind's not very steady
Then I force myself back to reality
And remember the day you fell from the tree
Goodbye my love
Please wait for me
