Take your name

Should I take your name?
In my poems for myself,
In the songs I sing nowadays,
In the fields of afternoon rays
     Should I, should I take your name?

Should I start to talk of you?
When the bells ring over my head,
When rain falls lovingly on my face,
When sound slowly cares for silence
     Should I, should I take your name?

The leaves groove to the music today
Your banks welcome the silking ripples
Evening resides far away, near the bay
Tell me, O my riverside dream of the day
      Will you know if I take your name?

I am just a star towards the center
Giving out light through each corner
Diffusing through this lonely atmosphere,
It's your name that happens to appear.

So should I , could I take your name?
Or let my dreams just slip away?
