Tarry Here

I bid you stay my queen of hearts Tarry here till morn Take not your love and go your way 'Tis allegiance I have sworn I bow my head in purest heart Consumed by shameless desire Quicken me with one last smile Enough to quiet this fire I press you please, consider fate Let its spirit guide your path Turn not unto your heart of stone Lean not toward its wrath Cast not aside familar dreams Nor memories patiently earned Douse this flame of your rejection Where the fire of love once burned Quench this thirst that haunts my soul Heed my beckon call Tarry here just one more hour Lest our love should fall
