a lover\'s pledge

you don\'t know? well, i can show you, i bet! just listen closely to my words for you from me you\'ll learn what love is- do not fret! and then you will be sure to love me too then as i gaze into your velvet eyes don\'t shy away from me, remain just so and when i lift you in my arms, just rise with ease into my embrace, on tiptoe and as i press my eager lips to thine keep still, a lifetime in your kiss i\'ll drown while your innocent lips will melt with mine and with our love the future we will crown i\'ll call thee my first love under the moon\'s pale beam and even more, i\'ll call thee my last dream.
