Were there words enough to touch your heart
A song or two my soul would part
To dance your wondrous beauty round
And gently lay your body down
On rose pedals dipped in youth drawn hope
A sweet bed laid our dreams elope
Wrapped in crimson drenched soft hue
To humbly share my tears with you
An angel warm upon my breast
Our life our strength our fears to test
To know in time our joy shall bring
One soul from two means everything
Were there words enough to pierce in you
The fear the want to know love true
I would glady place these burdens down
To write for you this lovers' round
