Sweeter than roses
Or cool, co...ol evening breeze
Sweeter than roses
Or cool, cool evening breeze
On a warm flowery shore
Was the dear, the dear
The dear dear, dear kiss

First trembling
First trembling
Made me, made me fre...eze
Made me freeze

Then shot like fire all, all all all o'er
Then shot like fire, all all all all
Then shot like fire, all all o'er

What magic has victo...orious love!
What magic has victo...orious love!
For all, all all I touch
All all, all all I touch, or see
Since that dear, dear kiss
I hourly, hourly prove
All all all all is love
All all all all all all is love
All all all all all is love
All all all all all is love
Is love to me

[ Richard Norton ]

Sweeter than roses, or cool evening breeze
On a warm flowery shore, was the dear kiss
First trembling made me freeze
Then shot like fire all o'er
What magic has victorious love!
For all I touch or see since that dear kiss
I hourly prove, all is love to me
