drink to me only with thine eyes - roger quilter lyrics

Loading...

drink to me only with thine eyes
and i will pledge with mine;
or leave a kiss within the cup
and i’ll not ask for wine
the thirst that from the soul doth rise
doth ask a drink divine;
but might i of jove’s nectar sup
i would not change for thine

i sent thee late a rosy wreath
not so much honouring thee
as giving it a hope that there
it could not withered be
but thou thereon didst only breathe
and send’st it back to me:
since when it grows, and smells, i swear
not of itself, but thee
