She says her heart is in her kiss—
She says she loves me dearly;

She says she loves me dearly;
Why meet I not her tenderness
As fondly, as sincerely?

With warm and artless truth;
And once my words were from my soul,

With warm and artless truth;
And once my words were from my soul,
But that was in my youth.
And trust betrayed, and vows forgot,
And wrong return'd for kindness,
Have chill'd my heart, and changed my lot,
And cured my blissful blindness.
And wrong return'd for kindness,
Have chill'd my heart, and changed my lot,
And cured my blissful blindness.
