Love Is An Easy Virtue

Will you now walk with me to Paradise?
So we may capture fate along the way
And come to know our heart's sacrifice
As love has more worth than the length of day
If you find love is an easy virtue
A garden filled with sensual perfume
Will our fingers entwine as love will do,
when dim flames rise and cause a kiss to bloom?
Will we now ask our hearts to guide us through?
And welcome sounds from love's surrendered bliss
To beckon dreams and sighs the souls consume
In glows of solemn pause from lips we kiss
If in this realms shade love and light was found
Then love must be a passion so profound...
