A KISS—A SMILE—A SIGH.
A kiss—a smile—a sigh—
The sweetest that love can give,
For what but these care I!
For these alone I live;
'Tis these that speed my hours
Till days like moments fly;
O, love, be always ours,
A kiss—a smile—a sigh!
The sweetest that love can give,
For what but these care I!
For these alone I live;
'Tis these that speed my hours
Till days like moments fly;
O, love, be always ours,
A kiss—a smile—a sigh!

A kiss—a smile—a sigh!
And why should we ask the last?
Ah! sweet, if sorrow fly,
Be sure love too has past;
'Tis sorrow's presence gives
The proof that love is nigh;
Ask you on what he lives?
A kiss—a smile—a sigh.
And why should we ask the last?
Ah! sweet, if sorrow fly,
Be sure love too has past;
'Tis sorrow's presence gives
The proof that love is nigh;
Ask you on what he lives?
A kiss—a smile—a sigh.
