If love, however brief, be love
Then daylight’s end may be no care
Nor the threat of stars in the sky above
Or the darkness’ cold despair
So kiss me quick then be gone
The moon is rising fast
Though the birds will end their song
I won’t forget the past
I wander the abyss of night
Your phantom voice beside me
Upon the hill, a burning light
The sun, my only company
Though life is fast as fifteen pence
Love’s the best experience
