Be With Me

You should come be with me Stand out on the back porch Gaze up at the night sky Count the stars with me Hundreds, no thousands of sparkling lights Diamonds cast on Vincent’s canvas From inside The sounds of Bruno, the one from the sky Singing a song for lovers You should come be with me I will hold against my heart We will dance under the diamond sky Creating warmth greater than Winter’s chill You should come be with me Until night grows into day And the skies declare what’s beyond the stars An endless Heaven of hopes and dreams And then I remember You are already there

Jim, 'Count the stars with me ~~ Hundreds, no thousands of sparkling lights ~~ Diamonds cast on Vincent’s canvas' Yes, everyone should be with someone just as you wrote 'when skies declare what's beyond'. -Richard
