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.
And where Rose goes, who knows?
Right now I know she sleeps
When I’m spark out, she’ll be about...
I sing an Edinburgh song:
Of love in bed all morning long
(We never made that lunchtime show)...
