Promise My Love

Build you a bed of roses\nto dream in as petals descend\nwhich crowd around your golden pillow\nwhere every rainbow ends\nthe rainbow ends\nthe rainbow must end.\nOur south facing windows will gaze\non a dazzling crystalline sea\nwhich I’ll smooth like our sheets every morning\nthen retrieve sunken dreams carefully\nswap your pains, for mother of pearl\nI’ll do all your laughing and crying\nwith an ace up each sleeve for you girl.\nI promise you my love if you want it\nif you’re sinking, I’ll sing you my psalm\nin this craziest of times\nmy rope ladder you can climb\nand the scariest of storms I will calm.\nI’ll lie through my teeth if you need it\nkiss it better, should tragedy strike\nall your sorrows I’ll impale\ngladly go straight to jail\nhave the devil dance a jig if you like.\nConsider your wishes all granted\ncream from a bottomless cup\nI’ll be at your beck and call endless\nlike a kitchen roll, just use me up\nuse me up\njust use me up\nthe drizzle I’ll turn into fine wine\nto serve on a tray in the den\nand all I’ll have raining from heaven\nare pennies, pounds, Deutschmarks or Yen\nI’ll turn the clouds to diamanté\nand pile them up each rosy red dawn\ninto castles, to keep bad at bay\nand only good moods I’ll allow in\nthe dark ones must wait by the door\nhave them feed all heartaches\nto a huge flock of doves\nwho will pull our dreamboat from the shore.
