lyrics
Dear Meg
Dear Meg, What do I do with you?
Oh, Meg. What can I do without you?
I grabbed a pen to write this down,
November leaves were swirling ‘round.
But in my mind with thoughts of you,
The slated skies were shining blue.
And like your lips of burning red,
The auburn hair upon your head.
It’s just a note to tell you why
Without your love I know I’ll die.
Dear Meg, What do I do with you?
Oh, Meg. What can I do without you?
I knew it from the day we met,
You touched my hand, I can’t forget.
The sweetest smile and shaking curls,
You stole my heart, you lovely girl.
And as I grew to know you well,
The deeper down the hole I fell.
But you’d just turn and walk away
And leave me with no words to say.
Dear Meg, What do I do with you?
Oh, Meg. What can I do without you?
I don’t want to be alone.
I don’t want to be alone no more.
Dear Meg, What do I do with you?
Oh, Meg. What can I do without you?
I hope you’ll read these words I write
On an early winter night.
I sit alone with thoughts of you,
But you’re not here to tell them to.
How can I make you understand
You hold my heart within your hands?
I’ve tried so hard to make you see
You mean the world and more to me.
Dear Meg, What do I do with you?
Oh, Meg. What can I do without you?
