Tell me, what is true love?
Tell me, how shall I know?
Shall there be a sign, like Autumn
That brings the Winter rare snow?
Well love is like a little boy
Building castles in the sand
And the higher he builds them
The longer they stand.
And if someone did shoot down
The white snowy dove
Then your heart is filled with sorrow
Like the pain of true love.

Empty Nests

Farewell sky homes of summer
In fading autumn light
In my mind I remember your face
To everlasting delight
It’s another new day
The time is young
Where have you gone?
Will you be back again someday?
Rain clouds on the horizon
A storm is moving apace
Birds have fled their empty nests
Went south without a trace
It’s another new day
The time is young
Where have you gone?
Will you be back again someday?

It Was In May

It happened in May
When the heavens laugh
When it is a lovely time of year
I got up early to play at the fountain
In a garden surrounded by wild roses
I heard a lyre
And there I saw a knight
And a girl dancing
They were slender and handsome
And danced very well
They embraced each other
And kissed and enjoyed themselves
Well thereby
At the beginning of the round dance
They turned and left, hand in hand
The game of love they played
To their hearts content on the flowers

When Love Is Gone
01:20
|
|||
|
When love is gone, where does it go?
To the mountains where clear streams flow
To the ocean past surging foam
Or up in the sky’s white feathered dome
How can it leave its treasured place
Leaving sweet memories of your face
Perhaps it never really leaves
But stays and whispers in the trees

Too Much Distance
02:43
|
|||
|
Too much distance between us
Too many reasons to stay away
Dead love’s vultures hover
Overkill on this difficult day
We’ve heard it all before
I’ve said it in the past
Trying to hang on like fools
To a time that couldn’t last
This feels so familiar
Like echoes without end
Heavy and hollow and lifeless
And impossible to mend
Perhaps we’ll find courage
Stretch out our wings and fly
Until we break the spell again
Once more ask ourselves why

Sweet Rose

Sweet rose in the garden
Sitting in the summer sun
So sheltered and shaded
Beneath the green oak leaves
Your petals are appealing
So pretty indeed
Won’t you let me get to know you
I’m called the wild flower seed
I’ve seen you court the honeybee
Flirting with the butterflies
Winking at the dew drops
Smiling at the summer sky
Your heart a-blaze with crimson
So pretty indeed
Won’t you let me get to know you
I’m called the wild flower seed
