Before I Gaze at You Again
[GUENEVERE]
Before I gaze at you again
I need a time for tears
Before I gaze at you again
Let hours turn to years
I have so much forgetting to do
Before I try to gaze again at you
Stay away until you cross my mind barely once a day
Til the moment I awake and find I can smile and say
That I can gaze at you again
Without a blush or qualm
My eyes a-shine, like new again
My manner poised and calm
Stay far away, my love, far away
Til I forget I gazed at you today
Today, today
