Pretty Things

I'll tell you pretty things my dear Every single day There's so very many pretty things That to you I could say Be ready though this could take long And it might never end You see I love you very much And with you I would spend Days and weeks and months and years As many as I've got Telling you these pretty things So you'd forget me not No repeated things you'd hear The well of them runs deep Each one a bouquet by itself To ponder before sleep And hopefully you'll dream of me While you're in the land Where those in love are frolicking While walking hand in hand So sleep now baby, sleep and rest And know that my heartstrings Are tuning up for when you wake To tell you pretty things
