New Morning

Is there something in this morning

I can give you my love

The warmth of the sunshine warms my heart

Seems it knows that it's you I am thinking of

And from you I can never part

 

She said no there is nothing

You can give me in this morn

I am so sleepy as I awake from my night

As a gift of a new day for me is born

And your gentleness of love has me worn

 

My commander in the army came to say

I must send you too a desert storm

Where now I await death

Maybe come in the morn

Once more a gift of a new day born

 

I wrote my love

I am safe and well

And soon leave this behind me

Find my home leave all this hell

And in your arms you will find me

 

She wrote to me please my love

As this breaks me apart

For who my heart now thinks of

A man had come and stole my heart

And I am saddened we must part

 

I said it's ok you are feeling this pain

For I know your heart has been lonely

You may never had seen me again

An empty heart I cannot blame

The choice you made was your only

 

I will keep you forever deep in my heart

And remember a touch as gentle as a feather

I learned in the moments of my worst fears

And as my death be near

What I had in my heart held me together
