That day
Many moons ago
When we kissed by the side of the lagoon,
You said "Chide thee sweet and fetch me more love !",
I in my innocence believed that you were sad

Do you remember ?
It has haunted me to this day
For then I could have lost my legs
Or my arms
And been happy to swoon in your caress
My face buried in your bosom
Lost in the cherry orchards

Love is a funny thing
A funny thing called love
