In Haven - Lyrics

in "Sea Pictures"

IN HAVEN (CAPRI)

Closely let me hold thy hand,

Storms are sweeping sea and land;

Love alone will stand.

Closely cling, for waves beat fast,

Foam-flakes cloud the hurrying blast;

Love alone will last.

Kiss my lips, and softly say:

"Joy, sea-swept, may fade to-day;

Love alone will stay."

LOVE ALONE WILL STAY

Closely cling, for winds drive fast,

Blossoms perish in the blast,

Love alone will last.

Closely let me hold thy hand,

Storms are sweeping sea and land,

Love alone will stand.

Kiss my lips, and softly say,

"Joy may go and sunlit day,

Love alone will stay."
