My Sweet Home

Leave me, dear! Leave me here!
Leave me where I feel not but some cheer

Let me be here! Let me be near
By the fireside where I feel no fear

This is where I was born
A warm place with plenty of food
This is where I was born
A little house by the woods

This is where I grew up and live
In happiness and in sorrow
This is where silently I sit and conceive
Of the waiting world through the open window

This is where I shall die
In sweet dreams that last through the night
This is where I shall lie
Down under the shade tree without fright

Leave me, dear! Leave me here!
By the fireside where I feel no fear

The Brightest Color

Thank you for the precious moments

you've shared with me
In cheerful happiness or dreadful sorrow
I, who am here alone,

will always think of thee
As one of the brightest colors of a wonderful rainbow

Leaving

I have decided to leave you.
I thought you should know.
I think you'll agree our love
is over.
If I could just find you
to tell you good-bye.
