Let Us Give It Time
Patiently I strode down the
alley
Narrowly moving past the
broad valley
Hurry, a voice in my heart
shouts
You won’t find any scouts
Stout I stand and aloud I
shout
Lord please show me your
way
It’s now just a month past
May
But I feel this’ too much for
another day
Help! How does one run
away from love?
Yes, running away from
what one may have.
For now, I like you; I fight
the fact that I love you
love is so big a word, I
don’t want to hurt you
Just like the brightness of
flowers in the morning dew
We’ve had bright times, not
just a few
But Just like fine wine love
grows with time, that’s not
new.
Let’s give it time, that’s all I
ask
For what lies ahead is a
greater task
Please don’t be sad by dusk
From you that’s all I ask
For the good times and
smiles, I say thanks.
