A Gift

I’d plant rows of stars for you

If I thought they could grow to the sky

I’d shine the tips of all of them

If I had a ladder that high

I’d capture the sun for you

If it wouldn’t burn my face

I’d light a path for you to walk

Directly to my place

I’d grasp every cloud

And make a bed for you

I’d lay close by and watch you sleep

And hope all your dreams come true

I’d catch all the drops from a summer rain

So I could shower you with love

But only if there was sunshine too

So there would be a rainbow up above

I’d give you the world if I could carry it

But I’m not quite that strong

And if I had the voice of an angel

I’d sing you a beautiful song

All I have is these lines I wrote

And everything I said is true

Please don’t ever doubt my love

Because that I can give to you
