“SIR TOM SINGS” – by Des Kelly
He was always considered to be one of the very BEST Vocalists around, In the era when we were blessed with the greatest male Vocalists ever, to hit the stage.
He was so good, Queen Elizabeth ll decided that she would grant him a Knighthood, making him Sir Tom.
Thank you Charles Schokman, for this touching tribute from the Knight to his lady who has now been gone from his life. Yet, here it is, Sir Tom Sings.

Lyrics
I will wake in the morning if you call
And I’ll stand beside you as long as I can
I will hold back the evening of your sun
But I won’t crumble with you if you fall
I will shadow the heat of your days
And I’ll drink from the sweat of your brow
I will walk to the tune of your song
But I won’t crumble with you if you fall
Come and walk with me and hold to my hand
Touch me, let me know I am here by myself
Stretch my night dreams into my days
Stop short of falling apart if I go down
I’ll wake in the morning if you call
And I’ll stand beside you as long as I can
I will hold back the evening of your sun
But I won’t crumble with you if you fall
