You waited for a lifetime Like an old pine That weights and watches Just to see your planter My little sunshine You bear sadness in your seedling eyes And your voice is rasped and withered Is this the debt I gave you? Or have my deeds all been forgiven? I knew nothing then; only love I know nothing still; only silence No words to tell you now No need to sweeten your sad seed eyes They are the sweetest ever My dear, my love my sunshine Forgive me for my lack of presence I'll see you in a lifetime
