Since feeling is first
Who pays any attention
To the syntax of things
Will never wholly kiss you

Wholly to be a fool
While Spring is in the world

My blood approves
My blood approves
And kisses are a better fate
Than wisdom
Kisses are a better fate
Than wisdom
Lady i swear by all flowers
Don’t cry
Don’t cry

The best gesture of my brain is less than
Your eyelids’ flutter which says

We are for each other
We are for each other
And kisses are a better fate
Than wisdom
Kisses are a better fate
Than wisdom
Lady i swear by all flowers
Don’t cry
Don’t cry

Then laugh
Leaning back in my arms
Then laugh
Leaning back in my arms
For life’s not a paragraph
For life’s not a paragraph

Since feeling is first
Kisses are a better fate
Than wisdom

We are for each other
We are for each other
Lady i swear by all flowers
Don’t cry
Don’t cry

For life’s not a paragraph

And death i think
Is no parenthesis
And death i think
Is no parenthesis
