Rhyme Scheme: ABABBCA DEDEEDD FGFGGFF HEHEEHH IJIJJII KLKLLKK| The wild bee reels from bough to bough | A |
| With his furry coat and his gauzy wing | B |
| Now in a lily cup and now | A |
| Setting a jacinth bell a swing | B |
| In his wandering | B |
| Sit closer love it was here I trow | C |
| I made that vow | A |
| - | |
| Swore that two lives should be like one | D |
| As long as the sea gull loved the sea | E |
| As long as the sunflower sought the sun | D |
| It shall be I said for eternity | E |
| 'Twixt you and me | E |
| Dear friend those times are over and done | D |
| Love's web is spun | D |

| Look upward where the poplar trees | F |
| Sway and sway in the summer air | G |
| Here in the valley never a breeze | F |
| Scatters the thistledown but there | G |
| Great winds blow fair | G |
| From the mighty murmuring mystical seas | F |
| And the wave lashed leas | F |
| - | |
| Look upward where the white gull screams | H |
| What does it see that we do not see | E |
| Is that a star or the lamp that gleams | H |
| On some outward voyaging argosy | E |
| Ah can it be | E |
| We have lived our lives in a land of dreams | H |
| How sad it seems | H |
| - | |
| Sweet there is nothing left to say | I |
| But this that love is never lost | J |
| Keen winter stabs the breasts of May | I |
| Whose crimson roses burst his frost | J |
| Ships tempest tossed | J |
| Will find a harbour in some bay | I |
| And so we may | I |
| - | |
| And there is nothing left to do | K |
| But to kiss once again and part | L |
| Nay there is nothing we should rue | K |
| I have my beauty you your Art | L |
| Nay do not start | L |
| One world was not enough for two | K |
| Like me and you | K |
