What I'll give you since you've asked,
|
is all my time together.
|
Take the rugged sunny days,
|
the warm and rocky weather.
|
Take the roads that I have walked along,
|
looking for tomorrow's time.
|
Peace of mind.
|
As my life spills into yours,
|
changing with the hours.
|
Filling up the world with time,
|
turning time to flowers.
|
I can show you all the songs
|
that I never sang to one man,
|
before.
|
We have seen a million stones lying by the water.
|
You have climbed the hills with me to the mountain shelter.
|
Taking off the days one by one,
|
setting them to breathe in the sun.
|
Take the lilies and the lakes,
|
from the days of childhood.
|
All the willow-winding paths,
|
leading up and outward.
|
This is what I give,
|
this is what I ask you for,
|
nothing more.
