This youth, a maddening tide, now floods my sight,
In my eyes, a wild, intoxicating light.
This youth, a maddening tide, now floods my sight,
In my eyes, a wild, intoxicating light.
A heavy heart now dances, a joy takes flight,
My bodice tight, I blush at my own plight,
I blush at my own plight, this youth's mad might.
Like the playful waters of a cascading stream,
Like the playful waters of a cascading stream,
My restless spirit knows no settled dream,
My restless spirit knows no settled dream,
This beauty, this adornment, holds me in its gleam,
Holds me in its gleam, holds me in its gleam.
A longing blooms, a fire in my soul,
A longing blooms, a fire in my soul,
Love's hidden touch begins to make me whole,
Love's hidden touch begins to make me whole,
Your subtle grace, it tears me from control,
Your subtle grace, it tears me from control,
This youth, a maddening tide, has claimed my soul.
This youth, a maddening tide, has claimed my soul.
