When My Loves Comes         Pamela Sue Perry   9/23/ MMXXIII Copyright w/m

(Capo second fret) finger picking-slow March

Verse

When my love comes.

When my love comes.

I won’t weep anymore

In the dark.

I got a candle

And a match.

Goin’ to wash my soul

Down at the creek

On the rocks.

Chorus

There’s a slow march

Playin’ in my head.

It’s not a revelry, requiem, or dirge,

But a plea.

Last night I dreamed

Of little birds

Beautiful colors on the wing

That I’d set free.

Verse

When my love comes.

When my love comes.

I won’t weep anymore

In the dark.

Chorus

How many bridges

Must I cross?

How many more

Must I write?

How many crosses

Must I bare?

It’s an uphill climb.

Verse

When my love comes.

When my love comes.

I won’t weep anymore.
