The first day of the rest of our life
For which with you the best summing up
Is pain, joy, love, a little strife
But love always anyway – you’re nice
I don’t need being told that twice.
I leave you – back there – a dozen miles away
A journey of great length –
Hours till we meet...
That I do love you darling so,
Oh, know;
That I so ache that I may take...
