Stay with Thee

She took him to the sheltered cabin

that she spent so many years within

It was her gentle longing that

she would spend many more with him

There was no illusion when she swore

He was all she needed

And she gazed into his eyes

Firmly held his hand and pleaded

Dearest will thou never go?

Stay until the Autumn leaves are blowing

She begged that he never leave

How could he deny

Their destiny

And that's why she whispered sweetly

Dearest stay with thee

He asked her how could we ever know

What the future brings

Je suis fou de toi She replied

Does your heart sing?

There was no illusion when she swore

He was all she needed

And she gazed into his eyes

Firmly held his hand and pleaded

She looked upon him with fleeting sorrow deep in her weary eyes

One day these chains will be a distant memory in their blissful lives
