Varnished weeds in window jars
|
Tarnished beads on tapestries
|
Kept in satin boxes are
|
Reflections of love's memories
|
|
Letters from across the seas
|
Roses dipped in sealing wax
|
Valentines and maple leaves
|
Tucked into a paperback
|
|
Guess I'll throw them all away
|
I found someone to love today
|
|
Dark with darker moods is he
|
Not a golden Prince who's come
|
Through columbines and wizardry
|
To talk of castles in the sun
|
|
Still I'll take a chance and see
|
I found someone to love today
|
|
There's a sorrow in his eyes
|
Like the angel made of tin
|
What will happen if I try
|
To place another heart in him
|
|
In a Bleeker Street cafe
|
I found someone to love today
|
I found someone to love today
|
