Ah love! You irascible delight!
Stop now, I beg you, you've kept me up all night
It is now soon light, and I would like to sleep
Why torment me so, what gain do you see
You have charmed me silly, and I'm utterly willing
to jump when you say, or while the day away
like I have the night, in your delirious sway

I see you dance, as you often do, and wish I could too
I would hold you close, and we would waltz to the blues
And were you to smile, my heart would be lost
What I'd give, to  melt into your eyes, it would be no loss

I stand a ways from you, and can not come closer
But I am tethered by a thread, that tugs my old heart
just like your laugh, affects my composure
drowning in the magic, as your enchantment starts

If time were to stop, and distance of little import
I'd whisk you away, to a place without towers or roads
we'd bask in the glow of each other's affection
while we sipped on wine, and danced away our woes
