"I laughed with you,
When we were but friends,
But deep inside of me,
Burned a growing desire for your love

I wept for you,
When you found love with another,
It shattered my soul,
And still it pains me so to think of you

Your beauty, your grace,
O perfection at the least,
Damn he who made me to love you,
And not have that love returned

I'll weep once more,
To think of that, which I could never have,
So close and yet so out of reach,
Tis a cruel fate to bear a love alone." 		"When I first laid eyes upon your beautiful face,
My heart raced and I knew that I had found love.
Left only to gaze, never to touch, to hold, to kiss
Then you left and with you went my joy.

'Twas the hardest pain to bear,
To learn, to find
That my love was in vain
Thou felt not for me as I felt for thee.

So then I tried to forget and go on,
But my foolish heart would not, could not let you go,
Now I am alone, heart broken,
And still joy fills me when I see your face.

O how I love thee, but none shall ever know,
You are always in my thoughts,
Every passing day my love grows stronger,
But to you friends we shall remain.

My thoughts of you fill me with both joy and sorrow,
Joy in your presence, sorrow in your absence,
In sleep I cry your name but to no ears they fall.
This woman has stolen my heart and will not let it go...."

"The clouds have made a crimson crown above the mountains high,
The stormy sun is going down in a stormy sky,
Why did you let your eyes so rest on my and hold your breath between?
In all the ages this can never be as if it had never been."

"I loved thee, though I told thee not,
Right early and for so long,
You were my joy in every spot,
My theme in every song

And all the charms of face or voice,
Which I in others see,
Are but the recollected choice,
Of what I felt for thee."
