Can you see how I long to die for you
May the weeds become tangled in my hair
Let the water fall softly into dew

I beg of you not to bid me adieu
I do believe that we make a great pair
Can you see how I long to die for you

I’ve tried to make this an obvious clue
How long can we put up with this affair?
Let the water fall softly into dew

Speak to me please, it is long overdue
You acting like this, it just is not fair.
Can you see how I long to die for you

I always wonder, “What is your issue?”
Putting up with this, is just wear and tare
Let the water fall softly into dew

My frail existence to you is not new
I need someone who will simply just care
Can you see how I long to die for you
Let the water fall softly into dew
