If I move from your side
 You declare you have missed me;
Yes, you growl and you chide
If I move from your side,
But the day that I cried
 You left growling, and—kissed me;
If I move from your side
 You declare you have missed me!

I defy you, again
 To be mine but "sincerely!"
Would you put me to pain—?
I defy you, again
To bring winter and rain,
 If you care for me really,—
I defy you, again
 To be mine but "sincerely!"
