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.
Through the years we played the game
Of love, soon learning all the rules
And my heart...
I see you solo in the shadowy house
You move from room to room, you stroke a cat
You listen to a tape...
