Song #6.

We have this life, this love only —
Kiss me on the mouth, my own!
Dust we'll soon be through the ages,
And who'll reck when we are gone?
Let us take what love can give us;
We'll find naught more sweet and true
In this life-time and this love-time,
In Time's dreamland, I and you.
What is after's so uncertain,
Love's the one thing Life has known;
And, while we have its dream in us,
Kiss me on the mouth, my own!
