To My Loving Guy

Clocks on the mantle ticking in molasses time
All I cannot handle is crushing me to hide
And when I look away I feel too much pain
Gray images of the past replaying over and over
In my mind's last wishing for some color

Please don't leave
I can't believe

*You went away so fast
I had hoped our love would last
I can't take it anymore
Here I am standing in the door
Saying my last goodbye
To my loving guy

On a grassy knoll
Days the summer stole
Push me down on the bed
In our hearts we were wed


Take me now--deliver me!
Give me wings to be free!

*

Clocks on the mantle replaying over and over
All I cannot handle wishing for some color
And when I look away I feel too much pain

Please don't leave
I can't believe
