ONLY IF YOU STAY
I saw him at closer view
A phantom of delight
His spirit light and free
And his steps were all towards me
How long were you here?
Waiting for me?
And so he said....
But where were you all these years?
I waited all my life...
And that I said between tears and joy
I am none but a poor woman
All images of youth are drawn and long gone
What I have today is not too bright or good
I have nothing to share with you
My noble man
Only transient sorrows, simple wiles
But if you would stay
I'll share with you some love, kisses, tears, and smiles
Only IF you stay
