Your eyes may thrill me with gladness
And tell me you`re true, dear
Yet thoughts still fill me with sadness
And what can I do, dear?
I wonder if you are free
I wonder if you are free
Do you belong just to me?
I`m always jealous of you, dear
I`m not to be
I am jealous of you, darling
Why am I so jealous, darling?
Sad are the fancies that throng
Through my heart everyday
Lest someone else come along
Who can steal you away
All your beauty I would own
I would have you mine alone
Fear that someday we may part
Still consumes me with pain
What would become of my heart
If I loved you in vain?
