Thirsty and Hungry

Think about me as I do,
I’m the lost sheep in darkness;
So thirsty and hungry I am,
Think about me in fairness.

Deep within your kind heart,
Intoxicated by wondrous ardour;
So thirsty and hungry I am,
Love me so I won’t go further.
 
Does it hurt to be without me?
Breaking a promise so abruptly?
Giving you my heart in earnest,
Now lost I am and corruptly.

There were those faithful kisses of love,
Flown away dead by the wings of the dove.
