Baby stay with me
just linger here for a while
Maybe
we’ll be together
forever
with a smile
On your face I see
eternity coming to beguile
Me
as if
I’m walking with you
down the aisle
Tell me
how this Payne’s Gray of yours
struck me in the eye
So wonderful
lately I’m in a state of daze
and my face just can deny
Like a bunch of rose petals
falling down from the sky
Straight to the bedlike-cobwebs
where you and I
lie
The strands
of my hair
are filled with your
Payne’s Gray
Let’s watch the moonlight
as it touches the day
Don’t ask why
just sit beside me
come what may
Come what may
your Payne’s Gray
Sleep with me for the night is through
and the day is coming
Loosen your tight
forget about the world
and just think of nothing
Empty your sight
like you don’t want to see
what tomorrow may bring
The daylight-stricken strands of my hair
with your Payne’s Gray shining
