To ebony

Menu

Back Romance in rhyme I understand Alone in a crowded room To Geri Happy Birthday Note I've had the tests A few days Without you My Life You're not there Time is not measured Muddy Towpath To ebony

Ebony, black heartwood, a ceremony of love
I see you in your cloak with hood, launching a dove
To fly so far, never landing till it's free
To tell the world about the love between you and me

A wood so dense it does not float
And with it still I build my boat
To sail on to eternity
'Till nothings left but you and me

The sun and moon both wax and wane
While my love for you just stays the same
Never grieve me, never leave me
Stay with me till the end of time
