As I watch from a stone’s throw,
Your beauty, I have been stealing.
Your bright eyes are such a blow,
They made my head to go reeling.
Your sweet voice, I listened to,
Stunned me. I felt like kneeling.
I wish, like cupid’s arrow,
My love can melt your heart’s chilling.
My love, I want you to know,
Your radiance stops me from ailing.
Yes, I was feeling so low,
Life without you is so killing.
With you as my love, I flow
And life’s exciting, so thrilling.
You make me high, it is so
Love is flourishing, fulfilling.
My love for you does grow,
That I ‘am strengthened and willing.
Your presence does make me glow,
It has made my life a healing.
Your very nature does show
That you are of a fine dealing.
My true love for you, I stow
Right beyond the sky’s vast ceiling.
