Oh, that the day was new,
Oh, that you were mine,
I'd bottle you up and seal the wine,
Keep you through and through.
I dreamt you were in love with me,
Your bluest eyes ablaze;
A silly girl am I, with dizzy-headed craze,
Unmerited, my plea.
I thought in an instant you were strong,
A champion unattached,
My sentiment starry-eyed, quite mismatched,
This dotty girl's love song.
I think of you too well,
My cheeks and heart aglow,
Your careless affection in a row,
Lined up prettily for me to dwell.
