Let Me Not Your Heart E`er Break

Oh let me not your heart e`er break
Nor yet your joy to steal
For I would not your love forsake
Nor mine own heart conceal

If in my palm I held your soul
Tight-closed my hand would be
Then I would e`er your life extol
And keep you safe with me

My love will dance upon your heart
To bring you sweet delight
From you I ne`er will ever part
Nor free you from my sight

Forever you will be my love
Until all time shall cease
Together `neath the stars above
And after death`s release
