THE PEDESTAL

If the pedestal I’ve set you upon
Ever gets for you too high,
Then I will gladly lift you down,
So we’re standing eye to eye.
But once that is accomplished,
I’ll be bending on my knees,
Pleading with you my darling,
Oh, won’t you love me please?
Then you’ll help me up to stand.
And as I do I’ll take your hand.
But in your presence dear please know,
I’m a humble man without much to show.
I am not worthy to compare
My lowly ways to a woman so fair.
And every time I walk away,
As my back turns I want to stay.
So if you’re not afraid of heights,
I hope that you will stay,
Up on the pedestal I put you on,
So I can love you more each day!
