Allow Him To Grieve

For his past sorrows allow him for to weep Tonight again he will cry himself to sleep For the one he loved who at peace forever lay In the cemetery that overlook the bay Tonight again old Willy walks home from the pub in tears For what has been and for the happier years The beer stirs up sad memories of his wife The dearest friend he ever knew in life A sentimental old bloke some who know of him say But some of our best memories can be sad life it can be that way Last year on the evening of the tenth day of May The Reaper from her stole the life's breath away And his tears are for her the greatest love he has known Allow him to grieve his feelings are his own.
