Lady, there is nothing I can give you
I do not have castle
Or a field heavy with wheat
I haven’t any finery
Or tourney to compete
I cannot make a show of anything that I can’t do
I can make a show of loving you
Lady, there is nothing i can give you
That you cannot attain yourself
But give me leave to lavish you with love
Lady i am humble but I swear on all above
To treasure every hour I can take
To bring you every joy that I can make
Lady There is nothing i can give you but me
I am no great warrior
I’ll never be a king
My lands don’t have a winery
Don’t even have a ring
Cannot make a show of everything I can’t do
But I can make a show of loving you
But I have fields of daisies
And more books than any mage
But I will sing you poetry
And lift words from the page
I will make a show of everything you do
Everything
ch
I have job thats boring but leaves all my nights free
I can cook delightful things with honey from the bee
I will make a show of everything that you can do
Of everything to show how I love you.
