Intro:G Em as above
If you're lonely,I will call
If you're poorly,I will send poetry
Chorus:
I love you
I am the milkman of human kindness,
I will leave an extra pint
If you are sleeping,I will wait
If your bed is wet,I will dry your tears
Chorus
Hold my hand for me,I'm waking up
Hold my hand for me,i'm waking up
Would you hold my hand,i'm making up
Hold my hand for me,i'm waking up
If you are falling,I will put out my hand
If you feel bitter,I will understand
Chorus
