waiting

wait here under the fern tree grove

i hope i’ll not be long

but you just wait and wait again

just wait for my song

can you hear the sweet soft sound?

the echo in the night

that melody that follows you

until you reach the light

wait here under the copse of thorns

i shall come back soon

but you just wait and wait again

just wait under the moon

the moon, the orb, the bright white light

shinning overhead

i’m coming back, i swear, i swear

i swear i have not fled

my love, my love, where are you?

don’t walk the woods alone

there are creatures who feed on fear

and knaw you to the bone

i walk, i wait, i look for you

oh where have you gone?

are you scattered in the wind?

or now another breath of dawn?

my love, my love

this isn’t right

you are my sun

and now my night
