You've given me a look
One look, so sweet and sad,
Mere look that with no doubt
Could drive the world mad,

It felt like you and I
Were dancing all that night
Under the trill of wine,
In the shimmering light.

And your belated kiss
Has frozen on my lips,
Under your wishful eyes
That wondered what I've missed...

I've been so harsh and cold,
"Hoggish" would they say.
And left for where they mold -
Those hearts that go away.

You've given me a look
That washed my thoughts that day,
And left me standing, shook
So baffled and astray.

I hope that your hot tears will dry,
Before the day
I die.
