You Say

You say you want to fall in love again
Inhale the perfumed breeze of flowing youth
Stare grinning at smooth lips' obvious truth
Explore anew pale hills and private lanes
You talk about your trembles from their breath
The butterflies and weakness of your knees
How evry word's angelic harmony
Of drowning with contentment in their depth
Falling in love's your pinnacle of hope
It's everything you ever long to find
It fills and carelessly constricts your mind
With dreamy touches and imagined gropes
Has alcohol or age destroyed your brain?
You say you want to fall in love again
