Come My Love

Come my love and let us sit by the fire;

There is much I have to tell you this night –

Before we both succumb to our desire;

Our stage is set underneath the moonlight.

I the player – audience you - - my sweet;

And so I start to speak and do not fear –

I leave you not and with death would compete;

For you are everything I hold most dear.

You are the Sun and I your satellite;

You and I were made for one another;

When first we met it all seemed just so right –

I knew then that there would be no other.

And so now beneath the stars let us love –

Then shall we both give thanks to God above.
