LOVER’S TOAST

Come to me with just your love
And I will pledge you mine.
Feel my lips and share my glass
And we shall sip red wine.

You’re the red rose of my day
And the lily of my night.
Nothing is so grand in life
As when you seize me tight.

Love’s uncertain future is
Where mankind’s torments dwell
With both its pain and pleasure
Our lust is alive and well.
