Sammy's Song

There are daisies in the field
And a buttercup or two
So I picked a few
To bring them home for you

I saw an old cafe at midday
With pink lanterns and little lights
I thought I'd take you down
And we'd talk till late at night

But then I look around and you're so far
I see where I am and where you are
Here the sun's set and there the sun shines
And here the moon's high and the sunrise is nigh
So I'll ask Him one more time

Can You watch out for her?
Can You take care of her?
I know she's not mine but it's so hard to let go
Even though I know
That You're holding on to her

I saw new waves crash on a new beach
With new shells and new ships inside
And I looked and tried
To find your face in the tides

But then I look around and you're so far
I see where I am and where you are
'Cause without you here to touch each drop
While I sit back and read and to watch
I can't remember a time
That I felt so very alone

I got to talk to you yesterday
And I heard your laugh on the phone
And I kept the tears back and I promised
You're not alone

Cause He will watch out for you
Cause He will take care of you
I know you're not mine but it's so hard to let go
Even though I know
That He's holding me too
