O baby give me the kiss
Of life and kick the dark
Bile out of my kitchen.

The air here is bitter, come
With your brook's honey
And sweep away the broodiness
In my aching palpitating heart
In this inglorious season.

It's dark dreary night, let your kiss
Bring the crystal day to the ravaged
Chambers of my bewildered soul.

O baby, come with holy kiss
And sentence me to
Life imprisonment in your
Sacred love orchard that I
May be forever free.
