Can You Be True?

Can you be true?

Can this possibly be real?

I knew quite suddenly

Do you sense how I feel?

I long to hear you whisper my name

'Til you tell me

"My Darling, you may be my man."

There will be days when you must go from my sight

There may be nights when clouds deny us starlight

Only time will tell us

I hope that it speaks gently if it isn't meant to be

Then again

By then we might not be listening so attentively

I will be there

If the days bring torments and trials

To close the distances only measured in miles

I long to hold you all through the night

And to tell you

"My Darling, you make everything seem right"

And then I'll hear you calling in my name

And I'll answer

"My Darling, I may be your man"
