Sing Me Sweet Songs

Sing me sweet songs

Take my mind off the world

Let the melody of your voice

Make my heart stir

 

Lay your head upon my chest

And whisper softly in my ear

Let the beating of your heart

Be the one to calm my fear

 

The world outside is cold

But it’s awful warm in here

Let’s make love all day

Come lay with me my dear

 

We have nothing left but time

So do not rush out there

Just put your hand in mine

And Forever we can share

 

Outside it is not safe

It’s more than I can bear

So sing me sweet songs

And keep us far from there

 

Alone we will not make it

I’m afraid we’ll lose our way

So sing me sweet songs, love

And we’ll make our escape

 

And if a day finds us apart

If I must go away -

Just sing me sweet songs

And in your heart I’ll always stay
