master brummie
Will you come and walk with me
Walk in places where we see
Trees so tall in spacious scene
So we can feel what might have been
Then as we walk to join and share
Maybe I could make you care
For I would feel as one with thee
If you walk along with me
Will you talk awhile with me
Talk to me of used to be
Tell me of your long ago
Things more recent that you know
I will then talk back to you
Have discussions old and new
Maybe I can make you smile
If you talk with me awhile
Will you stay and sit with me
In contemplation we could be
Look about us sight and sound
Quietly simple not profound
Calmly know a gentler pace
Maybe I could give you space
To see how peaceful it could be
If you sit awhile with me
Will you then lie down with me
Touch my face so tenderly
Kiss me softly so it seems
You and I are sharing dreams
In that dreaming we could stay
Just for a short time drift away
Maybe for us a perfect day
If you lie with me this way
Walk in places where we see
Trees so tall in spacious scene
So we can feel what might have been
Then as we walk to join and share
Maybe I could make you care
For I would feel as one with thee
If you walk along with me
Will you talk awhile with me
Talk to me of used to be
Tell me of your long ago
Things more recent that you know
I will then talk back to you
Have discussions old and new
Maybe I can make you smile
If you talk with me awhile
Will you stay and sit with me
In contemplation we could be
Look about us sight and sound
Quietly simple not profound
Calmly know a gentler pace
Maybe I could give you space
To see how peaceful it could be
If you sit awhile with me
Will you then lie down with me
Touch my face so tenderly
Kiss me softly so it seems
You and I are sharing dreams
In that dreaming we could stay
Just for a short time drift away
Maybe for us a perfect day
If you lie with me this way
