James Whitcomb Riley - Even songJames Whitcomb Riley - Even song
Work rating: Low


Lay away the story,--     Though the theme is sweet,   There`s a lack of something yet,     Leaves it incomplete:--   There`s a nameless yearning--     Strangely undefined--   For a story sweeter still     Than the written kind.   Therefore read no longer--     I`ve no heart to hear   But just something you make up,     O my mother dear.--   With your arms around me,     Hold me, folded-eyed,--   Only let your voice go on--     I`ll be satisfied.
