I'll sing you a song
whistle a soft tune or,
rustle up a new melody, maybe.
Tinker with some tools; tall
build you a castle, in line
decorated with roses and lilies, maybe.
Call the circus, host a show fine
Make the clowns go round a-round
Jump on the trapeze, break a leg, maybe
Voyage with the treasure map, bound
in search of pirates' gold, you at the wheel
'Aye, aye Captain!' I'll shout, maybe
Or simply , with a promise, I shall kneel
and hold you close, gentle after;
