I Will Send For You
Christel Alsos Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In early september spent august in vain
Just a little sunlight just a little peace
Give me every love song
And I’ll sing them with ease
I will send for you come myself and get you
When you don’t know looking at the raindrops
Landing in the sea makes no difference
Put me down for a kiss
Give me everything you have
That I’ll eventually miss
I will send for you come myself and get you
When you don’t know
