Time to Spend

There is a weeping willow tree
Down by the river shore
Under it you might find me
On my knees there looking for
A trinket of mine that fell away
And rolled to who know where
I search around it relentlessly
Hoping somehow it’s still there

So won’t you keep me company
Through the waning of the moon
And I’ll try not to burden you
With such a melancholy tune
But it has been a long hard day
I’m too tired to pretend
That I have anything left to say
But I do have time to spend

I’ve been stepping carefully
Trying not to bruise the ground
I’ve been told I waste my time
Searching for that perfect sound
And you say love just isn’t worth
The pain of the goodbye
But I still want to live my life
Even though I’m sure I’ll die

So won’t you keep me company
Through the waning of the moon
And I’ll try not to burden you
With such a melancholy tune
But it has been a long hard day
I’m too tired to pretend
That I have anything left to say
But I do have time to spend

Sometimes I wonder where you are
Sometimes I couldn’t care
Sometimes I have to tell my self
That you were never really there
It’s just be some kind of game I guess
My mind loves playing tricks
You know I suffer day and night
While my mind it gets its kicks

So won’t you keep me company
Through the waning of the moon
And I’ll try not to burden you
With such a melancholy tune
But it has been a long hard day
I’m too tired to pretend
That I have anything to say
But I do have time to spend
