The God of tears

Heather Lydia Thornhill 1981 (Manchester)

Rhymed
Say that you want my love
I love you so much I would
All you need do is ask

Say that you want my soul
I love you so much I could
All you need do is call

Say that you want my voice
I love you so much I should
All you need do is pray

Say that you want my light
I love you so much I might
All you need do is breath

Say that you want my energy
I love you so much I may
All you need do is meditate
