A poem by J. C. Manning

They Tell Me Thou Art Faithless, Love [song]

________________________________________________
Title:     They Tell Me Thou Art Faithless, Love [song]
Author: J. C. Manning [More Titles by Manning]

They tell me thou art faithless, Love!
That vows thy lips have sworn--
The smiles which light thy lovely face--
Are false as April morn;
My brightest dreams of happiness
They wish me to forget:
But, No! the spell that won my love
Doth bind my spirit yet.

They tell me thou art faithless, Love!
And changeful as a dream:
They say thou'rt frail as drifts of sand
That kiss the laughing stream;
They whisper if I wed thee, Sweet!
My heart will know regret:
But, No! the spell that won my love
Doth bind my spirit yet.





[The end]
J. C. Manning's poem: They Tell Me Thou Art Faithless, Love [song]
