PRESENCE OF MIND Sept. 29/83 Karl Rigelhof

I would shower you with diamonds
Adorn you with furs
Wine and dine you
With champagne and lobster

I would sell my soul
To have the ground
Upon which you stroll
Paved with gold

We would fly away
To distant lands
Exotic resorts
Beautiful white sands

But all of this is beyond my means
We still may dream
I hope this disappointment
Is one you can forgive

There's one simple gift
I can give to you
I wish there was more
That I could do

You can have me
Body, mind, and soul
My joy, my passion
And that's not all

With every beat of my heart
I give this precious gift to you
A gift nothing will ever take away
I give all my love to you

I can't think of a better present
Than presence of mind
Because you are always in mine
(And) I am always in you
