Forever With You, My Darling
by Alisa JsTell me again of your love and devotion
For without these words
I will surely fade and begin to die,
Like a tender blossom tossed carelessly onto a barren waste land
Without even a thought for those petals, tender
Or the noonday sun, burning and glaring, without reprieve...
Parched and thirsty I'd be out there in that desert heat
Bruised and battered by those winds fast approaching
On that landscape, dry
All I could see would be nothing, but maybe
Storm clouds advancing or is that a mirage?
Shrouded over that endless pounding
Of my heart or is that, now thunder? ...
For without hope and the promise of love
I cannot continue,
I could not go on
Tell me you'll wait for me!
Forever,
If it takes that long ...
For just one kiss
From your sweet lips,
I'd be restored and made alive, once again
To live within your love
To sing inside your heart,
Where I've always belonged
Only with you,
Forever with you, my darling...
