Sit Beside Me

Under the willow tree

under the stars

sits one lonely girl

looking for love

 

Walking down the path

with tears in his eyes

is one lonely boy

heartbroken and sad

 

He walks past the girl

the tears glisten on his cheek

and she catches his eye

and the sad look on his face

 

"Sit beside me"

these words whisper through the night

and the boy turns toward her

and sits by her side

 

They stare up at the stars

she wipes his tears away

and her movement is so gentle

the boy doesn’t know what to say

 

He tells her of his heartbreak

of the girl who broke his heart

and she tells him of her lonliness

and how it was tearing her apart

 

The boy is stunned by her beauty

the softness of her voice

the wind blowing through her hair

her smooth soft lips

 

The girl is in awe of his features

the deep recess of his eyes

the compassion in his words

his strong but gentle hands

 

He longs to kiss her

to feel her lips on his

for their hearts to share this earth

this love he wants to live

 

She turns to look into his eyes

as she does he moves in

their lips touch, loves first kiss

 the magic in the air begins

 

Under this lone willow tree

under these stars so bright

a new love is forming

an endless journey will begin tonight
