Agnes and Henry
Agnes sits with Henry in the hall Outside the leaves begin to fall But they don’t know it Her glassy eyes stare into space Wisps of withered hair enshroud her face That once adorned it
But when I say hello She gives me The smile that, long ago Won the heart of Henry
‘Cause he’s holding her hand Holding her hand He’s holding her hand Holding her hand
Henry takes his place beside his bride His stoic face belies a heart full of pride And adoration She always made him a better man She always gave him the strength to stand Above his station
And when I say hello He gives me A simple nod that shows He’s right where he wants to be
‘Cause she’s holding his hand Holding his hand She’s holding his hand Holding his hand
You can be the hero of the story Storm the gates for all the glory Be humble for all to see You can breathe the Spirit of the Age Set the trends that are all the rage Be who everyone wants to be
But if you have not love
If you have not love
If you have not love
