SONG

"I am a passion; I am a flame;
I am a symbol of loves that go,
I am that desire which transcends shame
Is it I you seek?"
"Not you: no!"

"My brow is pale, my hair is gold;
I can make your dreams come true.
Treasures of tenderness I hold-
Is it I you call?"
"No: not you!"

"I am a mystery; I am a dream;
A fleeting phantom of light and gloom;
A mist; a shadow; not what I seem,
I cannot love you!"
"Oh, come, come!"
