I came to say a goodbye
to an old friend,
I have seen occasionally
through the years.
...
In this old world of ours,
nothing stays the same.
Two hearts so much in love
could easily break tomorrow
...
The hint of lavender wafts the air,
as we walk around the garden wall.
You are blind, but I can see,
and I describe to you the beauty of it all.
...
There is a place I want to be
Beyond the setting sun
A million miles from nowhere
Where life is always free
...
A tender heart
is a heart that cares.
It gives love
everyone can share.
...
Here I sit alone
with only ghosts from the past
to keep me company.
Memories of those
...
Woke up this morning
My hair a shocking pink
Tried to do my shirt up
With a rusty cuff link
...
For Betty Backhouse
Where ever you may be.
Way back in 1959
...
Love is a wedding ring,
a little band of gold I give to you
...
Come lay down beside me
Comfort and hold me
Hide me from the world outside
Take me into your arms
...
