Because I
love thee
eyes would betray me
so I'll stay away
left to hope and pray
Because I love thee
you will not see me
you won't catch my gaze
my heart's stormy blaze
Because I love thee
I float like sea pea
having time to wait
to meet our fate
Because I love thee
nothing's to foresee
all those temptations
of wild expectations
Because I love thee
I'm an absentee
in dreams live my smiles
with no tears, no biles
Because I love thee
darling forgive me
don't search for my eyes
they'll betray our ties
