i'll sing for you

I'll sing for you in the evening
when we lay down and stretch
With melodies of watchful care
and gentle rest


I'll sing for you in the morning
And greet you to the day
With tunes of love and longing
and tenderness

And my songs themselves are nothing
No more than words set to a line
But the heart that sings them is running
To your side one more time
Oh your welcome starts me singing
Your doors and arms open wide
Your eyes always smiling
As you invite me inside

So I will sing my love songs for you
Play them as well as I can
They may never win awards, that's true
But they come from an earnest hand
And my songs themselves are nothing
No more than words set to a line
But the heart that sings them is running
To your side one more time
I'll sing for you in the morning
And greet you in the day
Tunes of love and belonging
and tenderness

I'll sing for you in the evening
when we lay down and stretch
With melodies of watchful care
and gentle rest

I'll sing for you
Sure, I'll sing for you
