The Heart Asks Pleasure First

Silent night surrounding me

On the shore of wistful sea

A kindest heart made me believe

The world as I wish it to be

Wind in the wheat

Kiss by a hearth

Little hideaways for a lonely heart

Cast away in beauty's gloom

The good in me, the child within

A cruelest heart made me forget

The world as I wish it to be

Home inside but lost for life

Human heart longing for love

Slave to the toil, this mortal coil

The strife, the suffering, the void

Wind in the wheat

Kiss by a hearth

A dead calm winter morn,

Morning birds, and a smile of a stranger

Frozen moments in time

Little hideaways, the marrow of life

Little hideaways for a lonely heart

Wind in the wheat

Kiss by a hearth

Little hideaways for a lonely heart

Silent night surrounding me

On the shore of wistful sea

A kindest heart made me believe

The world as I wish it to be.
