When It's Time for Love

This is a poem of love and blues.

I was there to embrace you when it was time to hug.

You had me to kiss you when it was time to kiss.

Baby, I loved you gently when it was time for love.

 

We were lovers and you broke my heart in spring.

You told me that you loved me, but you went away.

Each day I hope that you miss me just as I miss you.

 

Who’ll be there to hold you when you want a hug?

Do you have someone to kiss you when it’s time to kiss?

Who’ll love you gently when it’s time for love, baby?

 

I still want to embrace you when it’s time to hug.

Baby, I still want to kiss you when it’s time to kiss.

And I still want to love you when it’s time for love.

 

Do you still want to hold me when it’s time to hug?

Baby, do you still want to kiss me when it’s time to kiss?

Do you still want to love me when it’s time for love?

 

We could be lovers again if that’s what you want.

And we could feel the happiness that we once knew.

If you want us to start anew, do what you should do.
