Lyrics

Bilingual
Lend me, a little while, the key
That locks your heavy heart, and I'll give you back
Rarer than books and ribbons, and beads bright to see
This little Key of Dreams out of my pack
The road, the road beyond men's bolted doors
There shall I walk and you go free of me
For yours lies North across the moors
And mine South, to what sea?
ย
How if we stopped and let our solemn selves go by
While my gay ghost caught and kissed yours, as ghosts don't do
And by the wayside, this forgotten you and I
Sat and were 22?
Give me the key that locks your tired eyes
And I will lend you this one from my pack
Brighter than colored beads and painted books that make men wise
Take it, no, give it back
