| And a word before we part | B |

| The word shall fill my heart | B |
| Heart Heart Heart of my heart | B |
| Just a look just a word and a look | D |

| She toyed with his love and her roses | F |
| Was it mischief or mischance | F |
| She dropped him a rose 'twas a white one | G |
| And he lifted it on his lance | F |
| Heart Heart Heart of my heart | B |
| Is it thus is it thus we part | B |
| With never a look and never a sign | E |
| Nor a word for my hungering heart | B |

| She sought him among the dying | H |
| She found him among the dead | I |
| And the rose was still in his helmet | A |
| But his life had stained it red | I |
| Heart Heart Heart of my heart | B |
| Now my heart within me is dead | I |
| And alack for the look | D |
| And alas for the sign | E |
| And the word that was left unsaid | I |
