Tell Me Boy (with treble Aled)

Track No. 3

Adult: What can you tell me, boy,
          About my daydreams?
          What can you tell me?
          About my youth?
Child: I’ll tell you only
          That time is precious,
          I’ll show you sunbeams,
          I’ll sing you truth.

Adult: Have I forgotten then
          The Days of Magic,
          Cast off down memory’s
          Meandering tracks?
Child: Do not forget them,
          You may regret them.
          Hear me, and let them
          Come flooding back.

Adult: What can you give me, boy,
          To make me peaceful?
          What can you give me, boy,
          To bring me calm?
Child: I’ll give you bright eyes
          With each day dawning,
          I’ll give you laughter,
          I’ll give you charm.

Adult: What can you teach me, boy,
          About affection?
          What can you teach me, boy,
          About romance?
Child: Only that love comes
          When least we seek it,
          And knows its moment,
          But takes its chance.

Adult: What can you tell me, boy,
           About the future?
           What can you show me
           Of things to be?
Child:   I’ll show you (soft light??)
           I’ll show you blue skies,
           I’ll show you danger
           And constancy.

Adult: But you’re the child still,
          And me the giver -
          I stand corrected,
          Come hold my hand.
Child: I’m with you always
          Where’re you wander,(or With thee I wander)
          I’m with you always.
Adult: I understand.
