I'll linger here
Your ring upon my finger dear
And sing till dawn
A song of you and me and what and why
For time is all
I have to keep between these walls
And half asleep
The days go by
A million little nights and days go by
And I don't mind parades go by
So many beautiful parades go by
Leave me behind
I'll sit and stare
How could I venture anywhere
And let the centuries fall where they may but never die
For I have loved and so I lost the world above beyond the moss
The days go by
A million little nights and days go by
And I don't mind parades go by
So many beautiful parades go by
Leave me behind
