I've just been speaking to the one who holds the key 

When she asked me would I like to wait and to see? 

Would I like to try and explain?

Would I like to try and explain?

How my heart is feeling tonight with all the strain? 

And I said I could take much more from such a friend 

Although I hoped we weren't very far away from the end

For the time it's a-getting late,

Yeah, the time it's a-getting late

And my heart is hurting a little bit from the weight



She just said:

"I've got a bed here for you 

I've got a bed here for me 

So you can look into my eyes 

And tell me what you see . . .'



She's like a rosebud in my heart and in my dreams 

See her flow into the night like rivers and streams 

How I'd love to lie in her arms

How I'd love to lie in her arms

But I don't seem able to win her with my charms



She just said:

"I've got a bed here for you

I've got a bed here for me 

So you can look into my eyes 

And tell me what you see . . .'
