She gave me her heart
A precious thing
She said belonged to
me
It was beyond
priceless
I should have
treasured it
Guarded it with my
life
But I was a complacent
fool
And she took it back
It will never again be
mine
And I have shed
A thousand lonely
tears
As for her heart I
pine
She was so proud of him
When she saw him in
his uniform
He made such a
handsome officer
Like everyone she was
caught up
In the patriotic
fervour
She wasn’t concerned
about the war
“It’ll be over by
Christmas” everyone said
He would soon be home
again
So she revelled in the
beauty
Of her gallant hero
And she waved him off
to war
She was so in love
With her officer beau
and that moment lived long
In her memory
It was her last memory
of him
For the war wasn’t
over by Christmas
And he wasn’t home
again
The smile that graced
Her sweet face
Was aimed at me,
And her eyes
Gazed deeply into
mine,
With seemingly
boundless love
Feelings which I
requited
And yet as our hands
Reached out
To hold on to our love
It slipped like
quicksilver
Through our needy
fingers
And we were torn in
two
The Seeds of love move
Wind-blown in the
breeze
And settle on fertile
ground
To germinate in
willing hearts
Losing yourself
In the intoxicating
cloud
Of loves first blush
When passion blinds
All judgement
In an all consuming
Giddying jig
Loves refrain
Plays on during
The Joyful dance
Which comes to an end
With the weaving
Of two souls
Until Both hearts
Beat in unison
I hear music on the wind from the sea
I see faces in the
clouds in the sky
I smell fragrant
flowers everywhere I go
And you honey are the
reason why
Fall into my arms
My love
And lay with me
I will hold you there
And if my love
You stay with me
I will cover you
With loving kisses
So let me hold you
And caress you
Let our two hearts
Beat as one
And I will forever
Be yours
