Small tin box If your heart was a small tin box I would put little surprises inside When you were not looking Bits of dark bitter chocolate Hours of sleep in the sun And maybe a lock of my hair I would watch you open and close it at night As the cats did the Mambo All over the room I would leave an encyclopedia in one corner And a large Welsh castle in the other When you peeked inside I would look back out at you Inside the box the wind would whisper And the sunlight would tell you How much I love you If your heart was a small tin box I would put the whole world inside Just the way it is So you could carry it around Inside you forever
