A sleepy kiss is the only fare;

Drifting away from the world, we go,

Baby and I in the rocking-chair.

See where the fire-logs glow and spark,

Glitter the lights of the shadowland,

The raining drops on the window, hark!

Are ripples lapping upon its strand.

There, where the mirror is glancing dim,

A lake lies shimmering, cool and still.

Blossoms are waving above its brim,
