If He Were Here

Tomorrow I'll wear his favorite dress
With flowers of indigo blue,
Because I know that if he were here
That is what he would ask me to do
I'll sit beside the river and weep
With the willow and the mourning dove,
Knowing so well that if he were here
I would not be crying for his love
The night comes now only to torture
This heart, each time renewing my dread,
Because I know that if he were here
On my breast he'd come to lay his head
And all through the night I would love him
With a passion he never outgrew,
Because I know that if he were here
That is what we both would want to do
If he were here in my arms again
This pain and loneliness would depart,
But time is cruel and will not remove
This chain of thorns wrapped around my heart
And should a new love knock at my door
My response will be 'Please, go away! '
Because I know that if he were here
Those are the words he'd want me to say
