Love May Lie

Babe!
Mountain against valley were you and i
Two parallels forebode to meet
Yet my love ceased to lie
My heart at night aloud cried
To lay my heart I had to lie
With this I cajoled your why
These I did to make my hand your lea
On my knees remain I awhile
Till your mercy redress my lie
Otherwise I will not again lie
I know I don’t deserve your might

Darling!
I hold your grip alright
Favour forbids your knee and cry
Your place will take mine
For gratitude I hold my breath high
You bought my ignorant for lie
My height alone cannot buy
My want for love was saved by lie
Where would I have been without your lie
Love like this may worth lies
With this lie our love will cease to die
