She blushes and signs shyly** I don't ever post here, but I finally decided to post up my song. I wrote it myself and I hope it's good. I can't sing out loud, but I sing it in my head.

�Neath the Chestnut Tree

This is sung in a mournful tone, slow and a bit like Lord of the Rings music with words.

�Neath the old chestnut tree,
I was listening for thee.
But all I heard were flying quail,
As the wind began to wail.

I was watching and listening
And as I began to sing,
The old song that used to bring you home,
I knew that you were meant to roam.

�Neath the old chestnut tree,
I was listening for thee.
But all I heard were flying quail,
As the wind began to wail.

I waited years under that tree,
Waiting for one, and only thee.
And to this day I�m waiting there,
Waiting for one to touch my hair�

And say to me�
I�ve been waiting for thee�
But until that time comes�
I�ll wait �neath that chestnut tree.

�Neath the old�chestnut tree�
I was listening�for thee�
But all I heard�were flying quail�
As the wind�began to wail�

I hope that someday you will find me,
Sitting �neath our old tree�
And you will say,
�I�ve come this day��
