A song of love.

 I dream of you in this shattering heart

each night when I sleep

You come like the mellow shadow, dear

each night in my dream. 

You wear that dress, that you quite daily wear

and you walk as you do to me

and for the first time, even in my songs, I fear

I say I'm thankful for you to be. 

It's not easy, you know to live. 

It's not easy to be the way we are.

It's not easy to have fun and live.

But I'm at ease once you're here.

I attempt to fly to the blue-green yonder,

but fell to the ground for I had no wings

you came out of nowhere dear

and now I have no yearning to leave.

May I cry? These are of joy I swear,

the joy you've brought to me.

So many times have I begged to be left alone I know

but now I just wish you all to be.

It's not easy, you know to live. 

It's not easy to be the way we are.

It's not easy to have fun and live.

But I'm at ease once you're here.

I never wanted to be so crass

A heart of glass I have, 

but rock is what I've often said

is what I'm supposed to be. 

But now I feel, the day I'm dead

is the day I want you to leave

till that day, I know it's hard

Can you just, for me, be?

I feel it's easy, once you're here

for me to sing and love

to live and cherish the songs I've pinned

to live, to sing and to be.
