My Paradise.

Seq - Dr. J.Pitt-Payne. Kar - Bunty Pritchard Jones. May 2001.

Your eyes that once gazed into mine,
kindling sweet passion there,

who, 'neath their pow'r divine,
now bathes in their love~light rare?

Who feels the glow of your cheek?
Who hears the love thought you speak?

With lips that once I pressed,
Dear lips I once caressed?
I wonder!

Ah, wondrous love that was mine!
Who worships now at your shrine?

Who feels the glow of your kiss divine,
love's surrender,
sweet and tender?

Ah, memories that still burn,
I love, yet try to spurn,

you are my cross on which I agonise,
and yet my paradise.

Your hands that I clasped into mine,
pressed like snow to my brow;

Fingers of fire I've known,
Who feels their dear pressure now?

Who feels the thrill of your arm,
so strong yet trembling and warm?

Who now upon your breast,
knows sweet Elysian rest?
I wonder!

Ah, wondrous love that was mine!
Who worships now at your shrine?

Who feels the glow of your kiss divine,
love's surrender,
sweet and tender?

Ah, memories that still burn,
I love, yet try to spurn,

you are my cross on which I agonise,
and yet my paradise.
