An Autumn Love Cycle/I Want to Die While You Love Me
I Want to Die While You Love Me
I want to die while you love me, While yet you hold me fair,While laughter lies upon my lips And lights are in my hair.
I want to die while you love me And bear to that still bedYour kisses—turbulent, unspent, To warm me when I'm dead.
I want to die while you love me Oh, who would care to live,'Til love has nothing more to ask And nothing more to give.
