Lingers

She I love (alas in vain!)

Floats before my slumbering eyes:

When she comes she lulls my pain,

When she goes what pangs arise!

Thou whom love, whom memory flies,

Gentle Sleep! prolong thy reign!

If even thus she soothe my sighs,

Never let me wake again!

Soundtrack for a Little Love Letter

In someway this was the soundtrack:



When we first met you thought I was...
Took a friend, a drink or two
It's been years and I still want you
It's been years and I'm still with you

Now in the middle we're not the young ones
Who had the time, had the time
Sometimes it takes a bit to get it right
I know I'm not what most girls are like

You give me space, I'll give you time
We meet somewhere, we think alike
We are the same like day and night
Like day and night

I'll love you till this heart is through
You make me laugh like no one could do
If it takes a year, decade or two
I'll show you love, I'll show you

New years we walked in snow
I wore a gold dress, you were you
There was nothing that seemed in the way
I want that feeling to always stay
I'll try my best through truth and age
To always, always stay the same

You give me space, I'll give you time
I'll show you love, I'll show you.
