Don't Leave Me -

Blameless is the world, they say

When promise comes in early May

The blush of Spring to Autumn red

And when snows, she lies again

Dear, I count the hours I spend

Beneath the moonlight’s slivery send

But is shame or my own vanity

That makes her turn her back on me?

Don’t leave me

Don’t leave me

Don’t leave me

Don’t leave me

Each morn I hear a songbird sing

She stirs me from my starlit dreams

I search for her with dusty eyes

But soft as snow, away she flies

For years she lay right by my side

The truest friend in dog’s-hair hide

With eyes of frost and brittle bones

In spirits world, she lies alone

Don’t leave me

Don’t leave me

Don’t leave me

Don’t leave me

A child’s game is youth and beauty

Golden hair and lips of ruby

But time is cruel and in a hurry

With silver hair and a face of worry

Is it selfish but to ask

Just how long you love will last?

The brightest star still fades at dawn

Might someday your love be gone?

Don’t leave me

Don’t leave me

Don’t leave me

Don’t leave me

Don’t leave me

Don’t leave me

Don’t leave me

Don’t leave me
