Though I am old with wandering Through hollow lands and hilly lands, I will find out where she has gone, And kiss her lips and take her hands; And walk among long dappled grass, And pluck till time and times are done The silver apples of the moon, The golden apples of the sun.
How far away the stars seem, and how far is our first kiss, and ah, how old my heart.
Never give all the heart, for love Will hardly seem worth thinking of To passionate women if it seem Certain, and they never dream That it fades out from kiss to kiss; For everything that's lovely is But a brief, dreamy, kind delight. O Never give the heart outright, For they, for all smooth lips can say, Have given their hearts up to the play. And who could play it well enough If deaf and dumb and blind with love? He that made this knows all the cost, For he gave all his heart and lost.
Ah, let us kiss each other's eyes,/And laugh our love away.
I kiss you and kiss you, With arms around my own, Ah, how shall I miss you, When, dear, you have grown.
Yet they that know all things but know That all this life can give us is A child's laughter, a woman's kiss.
And learn that the best thing is To change my loves while dancing And pay but a kiss for a kiss.
And when you sigh from kiss to kiss I hear white Beauty sighing, too, For hours when all must fade like dew.
