My days are brighter than morning air

Evergreen pine and autumn blue

But all my days were twice as fair

If I could share my days with you



My nights are warmer than fire coal

Incense and stars and smoke bamboo

But nights were warm beyond compare

If I could share my nights with you



To dance in my dreams

To shine when I need the sun

With you

To hold me when dreams are done

And oh my dearest love

If you will take my love

Then all my dreams are truly begun



And time weaves ribbons of memory

To sweeten life when youth is through

But I would need no mem'ries there

If I could share my life with you
