My Lo ve Meets Death
Green was his color that cau ght my eye, So I came down from being up so high. I reached out for his warm love, But found he was going to Heaven above. Wherever he stands there is a tear from his eye. Beneath are ye llow flowers and I began to cry For death has yet to come and how it hurts to say, Must he leav e me now for this is a lon e l y da y.
