A SONG FOR YOU
 
 
By Monika …10/08

 

For Dawn

 

 

Refrain:

 

This is a song for you, my friend,

About a love that will never end.

We beat the odds and win the fight.

Watching each other’s back, day and night.

Sing this song with me, my friend

About a love that will never end.

 

1)

Those were the days when I bumped into you,

Dropping my books and losing my shoe.

You looked at me with sparkling blue eyes,

I saw you belonged to the streetwise guys.

I expected you to make fun of me.

Instead, you carried my books – born was “Me and Thee”.

 

Refrain: This is a song…

 

2)

Those were the days when my marriage went wrong.

When Vanessa was arguing all day long.

I felt lonely, abandoned, not sure where to go

My parents were on her side, making me feel low.

I expected you to leave me

Instead, you stayed – and said, “Me and Thee”.

 

Refrain: This is a song…

 

3)

Those were the days when we had our fights,

About pizza and root beer and other delights.

I complained a lot when we were on stakeout in your car,

The criminals could have spotted us from afar

I expected you to be mad at me,

Instead, you smiled – and said, “Me and thee”.

 

Refrain: This is a song…

 

4)

Those were the days when you fell hard for Terry,

You told me she was the girl you wanted to marry.

A bullet in her head stopped that wonderful dream.

When she died, I knew we were no longer a team.

I expected you to walk on without me.

Instead, you whispered, – “Forever me and thee.”

 

Refrain: This is a song…

 

5)

Those were the days when we laughed and had fun,

Pretending someone had stolen Dobey’s gun.

He ran and hollered, on the edge of a breakdown.

The gun appeared under his chair – and made him frown.

I expected you to put the blame on me.

Instead, you said, “It’s still me and thee.”

 

Refrain: This is a song…

 

6)

Those were the days when your life was at stake.

To see you lifeless was more I could take.

The doctors had no hope that you would survive.

I fled the situation, not believing in life.

I expected you to abandon me.

Instead, you came back – it was still “Me and Thee”.

 

Refrain: This is a song…

 

7)

Those are the days when I’m holding you tight,

Stroking your scars and knowing you’re all right.

You look at me with sparkling blue eyes

I know you belong to the streetwise guys.

I expect you to fall asleep on me

Instead, you kiss me, whispering, “me and thee”.

 

Refrain: This is a song…

 

 

The end
