COUNT OF TIME
How shall we count our hours?
Nay, Love! our kisses count
Our love's amount
While the fount of time is ours.
Nay, Love! our kisses count
Our love's amount
While the fount of time is ours.
Count we our moments? Dear!
Each moment is a kiss:
Why, 'twere amiss
To account for even a year.
Each moment is a kiss:
Why, 'twere amiss
To account for even a year.
Who counts his kisses knows
How much he did expend
At his love's end.
Our love shall have no close.
How much he did expend
At his love's end.
Our love shall have no close.
