I Beg To Yet Again Kiss Thy Sweet Precious Lips

I Beg To Yet Again Kiss Thy Sweet Precious Lips Where thou once played, life, earth and sky dared to rejoice In dreams I am not scared hearing thy soft voice As in river bend where waving green willows blow Gifts thou gave, were all I ever wanted to know. In death thou have returned to this aching lost heart remembrance of thy gentle soul shared from the start At dawn's break, I wake uttering thy lovely name Upon night's return, my sad soul cries out the same! In each dream trance, seeing clearly our past romance The waking morns and epic pains of our last dance With greatest regret I gambled and took a chance Thou pierced my heart with lost love's correcting lance! I beg to yet again kiss thy sweet precious lips Touch once thy face, before away thy ghost slips In saddened dark world, my spirit seeks redemption Thy merciful spirit forgives my transgression.
