second lovers song
You're wakin' next to me Tears splash across the sun You whisper soft to me That I ain't the only one To breathe your yellow hair Caress your bosom fair Do you think I really care? Do you think it matters?  What do your feelin's mean? Do you think I'd love more If you stood pure and clean Of those you'd known before Would your words be sweeter then Upon November's wind If you began again Could your smile be softer? Would your eyes more brightly shine? Would your laughter be so tender If you'd been only mine For as long as you remember?  I don't want tears from you Don't build your love on shame All what we've done is through And all we can do remains My lady can't you see I love not jealously But for all you are to me And all you'll be tomorrow
