And wholly given over to unfamiliar affections,
Honey find I gladness.
Would never want to tamper, flows on south
I have measured out my life with coffee spoons;
Let the Irish vessel lie
Here it is never wholly dark but always wholly green,
Of restless nights in one-night cheap hotels
to temper for a lover’s touch;
Reflect the place was not worth stopping for.
I have heard the mermaids singing, each to each.
And wholly given over to unfamiliar affections,
Honey find I gladness.
Would never want to tamper, flows on south
I have measured out my life with coffee spoons;
Let the Irish vessel lie
Here it is never wholly dark but always wholly green,
Of restless nights in one-night cheap hotels
to temper for a lover’s touch;
Reflect the place was not worth stopping for.
I have heard the mermaids singing, each to each.
