"With you, my heart is quiet here, / And all my thoughts are cool as rain."
Metaphor in Context
With you, my heart is quiet here,
And all my thoughts are cool as rain.
I sit and let the shifting year
Go by before the window-pane,
And reach my hand to yours, my dear...
I wonder what it's like in Spain.
And all my thoughts are cool as rain.
I sit and let the shifting year
Go by before the window-pane,
And reach my hand to yours, my dear...
I wonder what it's like in Spain.
