I'd paint you a picture
Of my love forever
But I'm afraid you won't hang it in your room
I'd write you a story
How you're the only one for me
Would you think it's a little too soon
I want you
To want to be
I want you
To want to be
With me
I'd grow you a garden
To keep you from starving
I'm afraid that you're already full
I'd knit you a sweater
For warmth in cold weather
Do you think that you'd wear it all
I want you
To want to be
With me
I want you
To want to be
With me
If I write you a love song
Would you be singing along

Strawberry Curl

There is girl
With a strawberry curl in her hair
Dancing down in the square
She's been away
Now the night longs for day
But the sweet summer sunshine won't show it's face
Oh how I want her
I need her to stay
Oh how I wonder
If she'll ever come back this way
The sky is upside down
A strange breeze is blowing around
Got me curious now
When she's away
All the light starts to fade
And the bright little bluebirds hide in the shade
Oh how I want her
I need her to stay
Oh how I wonder
If she'll ever come back this way

The sun is slowly rising
It’s as pretty as they say
I’m wondering when you’ll come
And take my breath away
I’m looking out on blue sky
Slowing turning gray
I’m wondering when you’ll come
And take these clouds away
I’ll sit here on these steps
And I’ll wait for you
Cause that is truly all that I want to do
Smiling simply cause I thought of you
I’ll spend all day
Wondering when you’ll come
I feel the rain start falling
Wet against my face
I’m wondering when you’ll come
And take its place
I’ll sit here on these steps
And I’ll wait for you
Cause that is truly all that I want to do
Smiling simply cause I thought of you
I’ll spend all day
Wondering when you’ll come
The sun is quickly setting
The night is getting cold
I’m wondering when you’ll come
So I’ll have someone to hold

Sleep Tight

Just close your eyes
And lay down your head
I'll watch over you
While you dream in bed
There's nothing to fear
I'll be right here
And morning sun will chase the clouds
You don't have to worry now
Cause everything's alright
Sleep tight
Just say goodnight
And seal it with a kiss
I pray the stars will hear your every wish
Don't shed a tear
I love you my dear
And morning sun will chase the clouds
You don't have to worry now
Cause everything's alright
Sleep tight
Sleep tight
Sleep tight
Sleep tight
