stay
1/12/02

you don't know it
i suppose
but you just made my day
just made my day
in the way you always do
smiling and waving
and saying hello
it's so simple yet
mind-blowing
how much joy
you can bring me
your face
is surrounded by nothing
nothing but joy
nothing but
sunlight
angels
that you employ
don't be so hasty
to leave me one more time
stay until
the end of time
let me be by your side
through life's depressive
and manic episodes
let me nap with you
at a picnic on the beach
let us roll in the snow
until it's laughter we reach
let me make your days
just as you have made mine
until it's no longer you
i must find
