Steve Harley - Ae Fond Kiss Lyrics

Steve Harley Lyrics

"Ae Fond Kiss"

Ae fond kiss, and then we sever
Ae farewell, alas, for ever
Deep in heart-wrung tears I'll pledge thee
Warring sighs and groans I'll wage thee

Who shall say that Fortune grieves him
While the star of hope she leaves him?
Me, nae cheerful twinkle lights me
Dark despair around benights me

I'll never blame my partial fancy
Nothing could resist my Nancy
But to see her was to love her
Love but her, and love for ever

Had we never loved so kindly
Had we never loved so blindly
Never met or never parted
We had never been broken-hearted

Fare-thee-well, my first and fairest
Fare-thee-well, my best and dearest
Thine be everyjoy and treasure
Peace, enjoyment, love and pleasure

Ae fond kiss, and then we sever
Ae farewell, alas, for ever
Deep in heart-wrung tears I'll pledge thee
Warring sighs and groans I'll wage thee

I'll wage thee
I'll wage thee
