Leslie Alexis - The Rock

Leslie Alexis - The Rock

Love… br Give me a rock, br Any rock, br And I would carve from it the emblem of our love: br The lily, br which unlike the rose- is gentle; br From the base of the stem, to the tip of the shoot, is mild. br br Give me a rock, br Any rock, br And I would mold with it the trenches of a river, br With purpose of br pooling the scatterings of your love for me, br Channeling it, br That it might mix with the sea I have for you. br And there our adoration for each other is endless, br And would never run dry. br br Give me a rock, br Any rock, br And I would make it into a brace, br That it might fix my eyes upon you, br Not because of Jealousy or distrust, br But because you are so fair. br So fair, br That I do myself a disservice br If for a second I take them off you; br Even if it were to view the crown jewels. br br And love br As I am on my knees, I ask of you br that you take this rock; br For each day you’re not my wife, br It is one less day that I live. br so...Say yes, br That I may have the hope of days to come, br Say yes, br br And within twelve turns of the moon br Take my name.
