LOVE HARDENED
I would o'erstare the sternest eyes that looks
Outbrave the heart most daring on earth
Pluck the young sucking cub from the she-bear
Mock the Lion when he roars for prey
But in as much as I proclaim all these
I can never bite more than I can chew
And if there's ever a god greater than me,
I will run as far as God has any ground.
But even I, a daring desperate determined dare dazzler
Wouldn't wait for doom without my heartrob.

LOVE HARDENED
I would o'erstare the sternest eyes that looks,
Outbrave the heart most daring of crooks,
Pluck the young sucking cubs from the she-bear,
Mock lions when they roar for a prey that stare,
In as much as I proclaim all these all through,
I won't bite more than I can chew
And if there's ever an heavyweight greater than this pound,
I'll run as far as God has any ground,
Only in the arms of my eternal flame
Cos my love for her will ever remain the same.
