Time

Come with me when nights are dark
And we will sing with the meadowlark.
Come with me down to the shore
And we will laugh and sing some more.
I want our time to last and last
But you are growing far to fast
So tonight we will catch fireflies.
Tomorrow, we'll chase butterflies.
We will catch fish at the lake
I will teach you how bake.
We will watch the clouds change shape
You will wear magic cape.
Time will pass until too soon.
I will miss you beneath a harvest moon.
But when the night is very dark
My heart will hear you sing with the meadowlark.
