Just a Lock of Hair
I often think of you at night,
Long to kiss you, hold you tight;
But all I have when you’re not there;
Are my thoughts of you, and a lock of hair.
Your long blond hair is a wonderful sight;
It shines like gold in the bright sunlight.
That’s why I asked for your lock of hair;
So I can carry you with me everywhere.
Chorus
Just a lock of hair is all I have from you;
Just a few fine strands remind me of your love so true.
I keep that lock of hair close to my heart;
Reminding me of you while we’re apart.
Now we’re apart, but not for long;
And there’s one thing that keeps me strong;
That lock of hair with your perfume sweet;
Reminding me of you till our pathways meet.
Your long blond hair is a wonderful sight;
It shines like gold in the bright sunlight.
That’s why I asked for your lock of hair;
So I can carry you with me everywhere.
(Chorus instrumental)
(Chorus)
I keep that lock of hair close to my heart;
Reminding me of you while we’re apart.
