Give Me A Song

Give me a song, I know it’s bad

After all the other gifts I’ve had

To ask you still for just one more

But while you’re at it, make me strong

Give me a drink, tastes so good

Makes my mind like a true love should

Helpless and proud as a foolish war

Like a sailing ship about to sink

Give me a sleep that’s slow and soon

Like the morning light of a summer moon

Like a river that flows strong and deep

Fill our cups, no reason why

I just want something to remember us by

Not something so good it’s worth dying for

Just something that causes our souls to wake up

Thanks for the song, I know it’s bad

After all the other gifts I’ve had

To ask you still for just one more

While you’re at it, take me along
