My turn by Glynis Hale
Would you like a biscuit or a piece of cake
Have a cup of coffee or a pot of tea I'll make
Sit down by the fireside, sit down in a chair
Rest your feet upon the hearth into the firelight stare
Talk to me of memories and of funny tales
Remeniss the sunshine and the snow and gales
But spare a little moment, take a look and see
I'm the one who asked you, will you come to tea
You can have attention and I'll listen and I'll learn
As long as you remember and don't forget my turn
