If i cud hv nothn' bt da sound o' ua laughter
da glo o' ua iz, da echo o' ua smile
if ony a strand o' ua hair, i'd b content.
If i cud hv da promise to mt u da mornin' after
da fantasy o' a kiss, ua touch dat does beguile
da scent o' ua body, i'd b content.
If i cud hv jst one o' ua starly glance
da blew-threw o' a half-hearted kiss
if ony a forced wink, i'd b content.
If i cud hv ony one dance
da lukewarm o' ua closeness, miss
if ony da grass u stamd on, i'd b content.
