Tear Drops

Tear drops by Moliehi Molupe-Koeshe As I laid me down to sleep I sent to you, my silent prayer A hope for a dreamless night A solemn lullaby So you'll be okay Every moment I think of you Wishing we'd never said goodbye Wishing we'd never parted ways Hoping you hold me still in your heart Like my prayer No more can I shake these dreams, I'm haunted by images of your love Tormented in my soul, By memories I dare not recall A tear drops I send to you, my silent prayer Though the sun has set And grey clouds cover the sky In a lean sheet of melancholy it cannot all be in vain! I have searched in the lybrith of my mind, In the maze of my soul and depth of my heart I screamed to the mountain tops and plains afar I laid me down in a hollow slumber Alone and desolate Still as i drifted off I silently prayed That you must know that I'm here Waiting for you, wishing for you I don't know what it means When you do what you do When you take my breath away Steal my heart and go I hope and I pray sweet baby That somehow you find your way back That this silent prayer will guide you home Before my last tear drops (c) August 2016
