Spend Some Time With Me

A collaboration
Lyrics by Sandra Weiss
Put to music by Heidi Sands

Feeling a bit lonely
Maybe feeling a bit blue
This is what I ask of you
What I need and it's free
Would you spend some time with me?

So much time spent alone
I'm always on my own
So, if you have some time to spare
Nothing special, just thoughts to share

Chorus:
It would make a difference
If you would be
Willing to spend
A little time with me
I'm not asking
For very much
Just to talk a while
I may have forgotten how to smile

I think a smile 
It could come again
If I can call on you
To be a friend
Would you spend some time with me?

I used to have
Oh, so much more
I could believe, 
And I felt secure
Things change, I ran away to hide

CHORUS repeat

It would make a difference
If you would be
Willing to spend
A little time with me
I'm not asking for very much
Just to talk a while
I may have forgotten how to smile

Ending:

So you see,
If you would only be
The person to spend time with me
Would you spend some time with me?
Repeat: Would you spend some time with me?

Your poem could be my mantra, Sandra. If we took just a few moments out of each day to comfort someone, our compassion might help them. What a lovely collaboration between you and Heidi! A fave for me. Hugs, Carolyn
