1. I have never journeyed at night or by day
In all my life but thoughts of you are my way.

2. Since we exchanged our love and troth
My heart has not known a night without your breath.

3. I try to forget yet you draw me back,
With memories tender, impassioned, dear.

4. Do not think time apart has quelled my love,
Or loosened the bonds my spirit wove.

5. Though I’ve seen beauties rare, lovers true,
My soul rejects them, only wanting you.
