As Usual
You say you will not think of me:
You shut me out and count your beads,
The chaplet of your rules and doubts,
But lovers never think of creeds.
You shut me out and count your beads,
The chaplet of your rules and doubts,
But lovers never think of creeds.
You 'll fill your mind with serious things:
You 'll think of God or Infinity,
Of a lover whose last charm is gone,
Of anything in the world but me.
You 'll think of God or Infinity,
Of a lover whose last charm is gone,
Of anything in the world but me.
Yet every thought will lead you back,
Infinity grow far and dim,
And God, with His sense of irony,
Will never let you think of Him.
Infinity grow far and dim,
And God, with His sense of irony,
Will never let you think of Him.
