| Till I blush in the light of your tender eyes | H |
| And dream of a far of paradise | I |
| Almost forgetting that ever from there | C |
| Another was turned in her bleak despair | C |
| But the wrinkles will grow and the roses go | D |
| I will answer you love my love you know | D |
| When the roses go | D |
