LINES ACCOMPANYING A PRESENT.
I love you;—yes, I love you
In my warm heart's inmost core;
And should care and sorrow grieve you,
Then I'll love you ten times more.
In my warm heart's inmost core;
And should care and sorrow grieve you,
Then I'll love you ten times more.
My pulse is beating lightly,
With affection kind and true,
And hope is smiling brightly,
For my faith is strong in you.
With affection kind and true,
And hope is smiling brightly,
For my faith is strong in you.
Then take this little token,
All simple though it be,
Of the truth and faith, unbroken,
Of a spirit light and free.
All simple though it be,
Of the truth and faith, unbroken,
Of a spirit light and free.
For I love you;—yes, I love you
In my warm heart's inmost core;
And should care and sorrow grieve you,
Then I'll love you ten times more.
In my warm heart's inmost core;
And should care and sorrow grieve you,
Then I'll love you ten times more.
