My Little Princess

It's just that you are
My little princess,
Just that you are
My life, and no less

That my eyes lie
For ever in your search
And that my eyes lie
Ever for your mirth

That my lips part
To whisper endlessly
And that my lips part
To kiss you soundlessly

That my fingers burn
Waiting for your freezing skin
And that my fingers burn
In sating the seethe within

That my heart stops
At every sight of you
And that my heart stops
Each night you turn to blue...

You are after all
That's after your score
For you are, after all
The princess I adore

So all that, in strict cahoots
To wither this confusion
Takes me, in strict cahoots
Hither, to this conclusion

That my princess, in her life
Should always keep a while
Where my princess, my life
Should always be a smile.
