Beat Slowly
Beat slowly
Ever so slowly
Oh tender heart
For he is going to come
The sun is out
Ever so early
The clouds parting
To let the rays come thru
Beat slowly
Ever so slowly
Oh expectant heart
For he is going to come
The wind is blowing
Ever so gently
Bringing the smell
Of his warm body
Beat slowly
Ever so slowly
My frantic heart
For he is going to come
Flowers have bloomed
Ever so tenderly
Ready to
Adorn my hair
Beat slowly
Ever so slowly
My patient heart
He is going to come
The diamond is shining
Ever so enticingly
Against my breast
To be touched by his lips
Beat slowly
Ever so slowly
Oh loving heart
For he is going to come
My breath has stopped
My body still
For there I hear
His approaching steps
Beat fast
Ever so fast
Oh my waiting heart
For he has come
