One Word from You by Grete Batzke

 

It strange to feel that I have become the guardian of the writings of Margarethe (Greta Batzke) Fechenbach. I will have to make a complete part of the www.hermannfechenbach.com dedicated to Grete’s work.

 

Here is a song from the archive that has been placed in my care, it’s called ‘One Word From You’ and dated August 1949.

 

One Word From You.

 

One word from you
that will work wonder
one word from you
that will go far
will make the roses blush
in pride and wonder
one word from you
will light the
newborn star.

 

My darling say it
do not delay it
the Sweetest word.

 

I am so lonely
you are my only
affinity.

 

Sweetheart I love you
do make my dream come true
our dream come true.

 

One word from you
that will work wonder
one word from you
that will go far
will make the roses blush
in pride and wonder
one word from you
will light the
newborn star.
