I Said - I Care Not

Topics: classic

I said - I care not if I can         But look into her eyes again,     But lay my hand within her hand         Just once again.     Though all the world be filled with snow         And fire and cataclysmal storm,     I'll cross it just to lay my head         Upon her bosom warm.     Ah! bosom made of April flowers,         Might I but bring this aching brain,     This foolish head, and lay it down         On April once again!
