For The Dancing And The Dreaming

I'll swim and sail on savage seas
With ne'er a fear of drowning.
And gladly ride the waves of life
If you will marry me.
 
No scorching sun, nor freezing cold
Will stop me on my journey
If you will promise me your heart
And love me for eternity.
 
My dearest one, my darling dear,
Your mighty words astound me.
But I've no need of mighty deeds
When I feel your arms around me.
 
But I would bring you rings of gold,
I'd even sing you poetry! 
And I would keep you from all harm
If you would stay beside me!
 
I have no use for rings of gold,
I care not for your poetry.
I only want your hand to hold,
I only want you near me!
 
To love and kiss, to sweetly hold!
For the dancing and the dreaming!
Through all life's sorrows and delights,
I'll keep your love inside me!
 
I'll swim and sail on savage seas
With ne'er a fear of drowning!
And gladly ride the waves of life
If you will marry me!
