LET ME BE

LET ME BE

REMEMBER YOUR PROMISE,
TO LOVE ME UNTIL TIME STAND STILL 
WAY BEYOND THE BREATH OF THE HOURGLASS 
THAT YOU PROMISED

BUT IF BY CHANCE,
A FLOWER ACROSS THE FIELD
SHALL ENLIGHTEN YOUR EYES,
IF A GUST OF WIND 
CAUSE YOUR SAIL TO DRIFT OFF COURSE,
LET ME NOT BE A MEMORY OF YOURS 

PLEASE FORGET ABOUT ME,
FOR YOU WOULD HAVE BEEN 
LONG FORGOTTEN 
IN MY HEART AND MEMORY 

AND IF I AM LEFT STRANDED 
ON A DESERTED ISLAND 
MILES AWAY FROM A HUMAN TOUCH,
THINK NOT OF ME 
AS YOU SAIL THE ENDLESS SEA

FOR YOU HAVE BROKEN YOUR SOLEMN PROMISE 
TO LOVE ME UNCONDITIONALLY 
AND IN THE MIDST OF A PASSING STORM
YOU WONDERED FAR AWAY FROM ME
SO, JUST LET ME BE.
WILFORD BARKER.
