Every time
You hide yourself from view
You cut me in two
Every time
You get up to go
My heart plunges low
Every time
You tell me to wait, to go
slow
You deal a death blow
Every time
You limit my steps
I shrink at the prospect
I give you love
More and ever more
You make me wait at your door
In your arms it’s snug and
warm
From your arms I’m ever torn
To live and die forlorn
Vault’s chill surrounds me
so.
I’ve loved a hundred times
I’ve loved in hundred climes
I’ve loved by night and day
My loves all strayed away.
I couldn’t go my way
I fretted and I cried
Till my eyes ran dry
And I became a ghost
Living way beyond my post.
