Saw You

(replacement lyrics for Pink Floyd’s Hey You)

‘Saw you, moving about in the park,
Looking lovely, looking spark,
You’re my angel.
‘Saw you, playing with your daughter,
Who runs around, bursts with laughter,
You’re my angel.
‘Saw you, both in the shade of a tree:
So much love; that is the key.

‘Saw you, caring for your offspring,
Soothing, teaching and then hugging,
Will you greet me?
‘Saw you, readying the little one,
For all that awaits everyone,
Will you greet me?
‘Saw you, do all you need to shape that jewel:
Here she comes, formidable!

You do it ever patiently.
Raising your dear so well,
As I can see.
No matter what fate tried,
It turned out all right.
And so the princess will blossom.

‘Saw you, worried of the future,
Of new problems, of conjuncture,
Let me love you.
‘Saw you, soul mate on the road,
Of my heart as I strode,
Let me love you.
‘Saw you, looking back at me with no sorrows:
Happiness is here, tomorrow it grows.
