Say Not So!
Oh, say not so —
“We two are through!” —
For you must know,
(Through weal or woe),
I love you.
So, say not so;
For I shall rue
The day you go.
In Summers’ glow
I loved you.
Then say not so,
For you are due
All love can owe!.
In Autumns’ blow
I loved you.
Oh, say not so!;
For love that’s true
Will closer grow.
In Winters’ throe
I loved you.
So, say not so:
For I tell you
My heart would snow
In Springs’ fresh flow!.
I love you.
Then say not so.
Stay with me, do!.
For now you know,
(Through weal and woe),
I love you!.
