Come Live with Me

by JLR

Come live with me and be my love
my wife you'd be, come now my dove
to fit you like a hand to glove
proclaim true love, you be my love.

We'd watch the waves roll in roll out
Toward the breeze we would loud shout
as the rain squalls gush through the spout
get wet from waves roll in roll out

When Sun rays warm the sandy shore
Castles of sand that you'd adore
I'd build complete with parquet floors
Our child can crawl on sandy shores.

So have I made my plea to thee
as clear, precise as needs to be?
That 'tis your sweet ripe lips I see
so make me glad, my plea to thee!

I will cherish the day we wed
on your heart I will not dare tread!
