Will You Marry Me


The Sun dupes me at dusk - my world turns grey - Leaving me alone with the distant stars... Will you marry me on Valentine's Day? Rivers have gone to meet the sea - at bay Rest - poured their love in the shallow of marsh The Sun dupes me at dusk - my world turns grey Cuckoos are busy in nuptial play Rest are singing along with the guitars Will you marry me on Valentine's Day? Your long absence makes my faint heart to fray Following your footsteps up to the Mars The Sun dupes me at dusk - my world turns grey The Spring is bringing colours to display Spreading merry through the strings of sitars Will you marry me on Valentine's Day? Please don’t let the time – once more – slips away Give me fair chance to heal my endless scars The Sun dupes me at dusk - my world turns grey Will you marry me on Valentine's Day? 01.02.16
