No. 1: True, True Love!
| SELWORTHY: |
| |
My love I lov'd across the sea,... |
| |
|
If you could know that I was nigh
Your spirit wafted on a sigh, |
| |
Would fly in rapture back to me... |
| |
|
But pictur'd forms in time decay
And flow'rs may wither locks grow grey,
But love can never fade away |
| | | |
True, true love! |
| |
| |
My love I lov'd across the sea,... |
| |
|
Like swallow surely flying home...
Athwart the flash across the foam, |
| |
I come, I come, again to thee! |
| |
|
For truant feet may go astray
And flow'rs and fancies fade away
But love with me is love for aye |
| |
|
|
True, true love. |
