Make Me Stay

Wake me with your gentile touch Raise me with life’s need so much Promise to be here when I return Let your love be what I earn Thank you for the loving lunch That fixed my care’s and the such The piece of cake that was so sweet The apple that appeared so meek Thanks for just filling my day With thoughts of you that makes me stay With dreams of you that make me play With needs of you that make me pray Thanks for dinner so divine A time to share a prayer and dine And thanks for sharing evening time Watching T.V. your laugh with mine Thanks for my future home Our plans and wishes not left alone Filling rooms with furniture and flesh Our future hopes we give to our best Thanks for a day that ends with prayer That thanks my God that you are there Thanks for sharing my bed and sleep And for sharing the moments that we weep Just for listening to my dreams And you signaling your list of needs That let you stay with no need to leave And makes us proud of the basket we weaved
