Pretty Things
I'll tell you pretty things my dear
Every single day
There's so very many pretty things
That to you I could say
Be ready though this could take long
And it might never end
You see I love you very much
And with you I would spend
Days and weeks and months and years
As many as I've got
Telling you these pretty things
So you'd forget me not
No repeated things you'd hear
The well of them runs deep
Each one a bouquet by itself
To ponder before sleep
And hopefully you'll dream of me
While you're in the land
Where those in love are frolicking
While walking hand in hand
So sleep now baby, sleep and rest
And know that my heartstrings
Are tuning up for when you wake
To tell you pretty things
