I Won'T
If in the flushing garden path you walk forlorn
And the hue of the sunburst sky embellishes you
You’ll see me defined in the floating cloud
You won’t be lonely, for I won’t ever leave you.
If on the desert dunes you trudge desolate
And follow the mirage to the hazy horizon
You’ll reach the oasis of my heart
You won’t be alone, for I won’t ever desert you.
If on the golden beach sand you lie abandoned
And the waves make pearly lattice around you
You’ll see my yearning embrace you with adornment
You won’t be lost, for I won’t ever forsake you.
If in the stream of cascading dream you float
And sail your heart to the bay of longing
You’ll hear in the hum of ripples my captivating song
You won’t be dismayed, for I won’t ever disown you.
