Come, have a drink with me –
Care can swallow love,
And tasks devour time
Enough of cups of tea!
Your eyes, ever more sublime,
Dancing bright above
A brown and friendly beer
Will soon meet mine, my dear
Intoxicatingly.
The light is dying out of the sky
Sun said goodnight an hour ago
The garden’s in shadow, one lone bird goes by...
And where Rose goes, who knows?
Right now I know she sleeps
When I’m spark out, she’ll be about...
