Merchant song

The merchant told me I should leave you alone
He said your time is much too vital to lose
Before I worry that he's speaking the truth
You'll dissuade me
I watch the children turn their head in the street
They'd never seen such a remarkable thing
To hear you dance across the cobble
Feel my knees begin to wobble at the sight

At first I gathered up the nerve to approach
Collected notes I'd have thе honor to share
To hope an angel so adеpt and aware
Would find wisdom
To watch her eyes follow the curves of my pen
Watch my metaphors relax on her lips
Then I thought you caught me staring
Knew I hadn't quite prepared for how you'd smile

So when they've all decided their purpose here
What's to become of me, dear
Don't you feel all that quiet weight
Please take me with you today
