Sing You a Love You Song

[mrskilgoretrout]

Before the laughter and the cheer
Disolves into his memory
Taste of vodka on his lips
And thoughts of murder and doom
As her eyes appeared to bloom
He wanted to touch them but was afraid
She might be taken aback
Then what would he say?

They walked to the garden in the park
When it was empty after dark
Then spread out a blanket and laid down
And a voice said, "No one else could hear."
He whispered in her ear,
"Although I can't sing it now, be still...
Someday baby I will
Sing you a love you song."

She rolled over and a kiss
Laid softly on his chin and said,
"You know maybe there's a chance
That your feelings you've mistook
Or have presently overlooked...
You say you don't love me, but yet
Perhaps you just forget
That you do."

He said, "I love you, please believe
the only matter of concern is that
your love will one day fade.
If that should happen, I would die,
And that's the reason why
I know I can't sing it now but be still...
'Cos some day baby I will
Sing you a love you song..."

She said, "How could you question
When the root of my affection
Is so plain and obvious?
It grew from the overwhelming pleasure
Of just being near you
And now you bring in doubts and
They are smothering our love!"
