Blush me

Blush me

Into your heart

Capture my reverie

Put it in a box

And take it home

Put it on the mantle

Next to the carriage clock

Underneath the photograph

Perhaps the heat

Will make it beat again

Nothing will compare

To making love

To you in springtime

Or any time of year

It cares to be

Mix my drab hue

Add a dash

Of blue to

Make it true

Wash the tears

Away before they dry

I have seen you cry

Maybe we can

Keep our dreams

And hold them tight

Till morning light

Comes streaming

Over the canvas

Have I been dreaming

Or am I simply

Still in love with you.
