Tootie

You put a rose in my hand 
 
Put a dollar in my pocket 
 
But you don't understand 
 
How the days grow longer, the sky is black as night 
 
I see the morning but you won't see the light 
 


I thought about you for a long, long time 
 
I wrote about you but my words don't seem to rhyme 
 
And now you're lying here 
 
But my heart still beats for you 
 


Had a dream about you 
 
You sat right down beside me 
 
And you told me we were through 
 
It was all so real and you told me reasons why 
 
You brought me to the window 
 
And you taught me how to fly 
 


I thought about you for a long, long time 
 
I said I love you but we just don't have the time 
 
And now you're lying here 
 
But my heart still beats for you 
 


I thought to hold you for a long, long time 
 
You said I love you but my heart won't seem to chime in 
 
And now you're lying here 
 
And my heart still beats for you...I'm trying, and my heart still beats for you
