"When I am A Child"

cji
3/24/99

Verse 1
********

Will you love me my dear
when again I'm a child
will my mind still be clear
or will I somehow be wild?

Verse 2
********

When we think of how we met
and all the many plans we made
until that day on the bench we set;
I love you more as my tears cascade.

Verse 3
********

I'll love you till the forever of days
picking flowers to brighten lighten;
and to tell you all the many ways,
with my arms around you to tighten.

Verse 4
********

So when we have both again become
like the children were commanded too
I want you to know I'll to you still come;
and love forever and even only you.

Verse 5
*******

Thus when I again am a child I need
to know it you my hand will hold.
Not another in your place or deed,
otherwise I want never to grow old.
