She was sitting in the corner crying
I can't do this anymore she said,
her nerves were nearly all shattered
I knelt down and hugged her
I told her the show must go on
she looked at me with make up all a running
she nodded and slowly got to her feet
just one more act and the play would be complete
I egged her on with a bums on seats gag
she smiled sweetly, which made me blush
if only we walked arm in arm
she would make my garden lush
if she knew how much I loved her
in all her delicate physique
maybe she would think of me as lover
not the person who plays so meek
