I Would Not Let You Go
This heart it knows no boundaries
This simple truth I know
Let not your tender heart be troubled
I would not let you go.
Your charm draws me to your shores
In sunbeams of your fulgent glow
This truth: My heart your love adores
I would not let you go.
As time may fleet and seasons die
These words I'd have you know
If health may bid our lives goodbye
I would not let you go.
Whatever joy may bless these eyes
Whatever dark our lives may blow
I shall but love you in every sunrise
I would not let you go.
And in my life your charms embrace
Like flowers our love would grow
And in earths light your Angels face
I would not let you go.
You have touched my heart so bright
For you my dreams I'd forgo
Thro' tears, thro' joys and blackest night
I would not let you go.
