What right have I? | |
You are not mine | |
Nor will you ever be | |
I need not try | |
To read your sign | |
You don’t belong to me | |
I should not care | |
How you behave | |
What difference does it make? | |
Perhaps someday | |
You will grow brave | |
And from this sleep awake | |
But when you do | |
It will not then | |
Be caused by what I say | |
But by one who | |
Like other men | |
Holds you within her sway | |
And as I claim | |
No place within | |
The life you choose to live | |
I’ll stay the same | |
As I have been | |
And all your faults forgive | |
Perhaps I own | |
The privileged place | |
For worry I need not | |
I may condone | |
Reprove with grace | |
And still remain unfraught | |
With jealousies | |
And petty cares | |
And all that love demands | |
So as you please | |
I’ll save my prayers | |
And better use my hands | |
But why all this? | |
As I have said | |
It matters not to me | |
What right have I? | |
You are not mine | |
Nor will you ever be |
What right have I? | |
You are not mine | |
Nor will you ever be | |
I need not try | |
To read your sign | |
You don' t belong to me | |
I should not care | |
How you behave | |
What difference does it make? | |
Perhaps someday | |
You will grow brave | |
And from this sleep awake | |
But when you do | |
It will not then | |
Be caused by what I say | |
But by one who | |
Like other men | |
Holds you within her sway | |
And as I claim | |
No place within | |
The life you choose to live | |
I' ll stay the same | |
As I have been | |
And all your faults forgive | |
Perhaps I own | |
The privileged place | |
For worry I need not | |
I may condone | |
Reprove with grace | |
And still remain unfraught | |
With jealousies | |
And petty cares | |
And all that love demands | |
So as you please | |
I' ll save my prayers | |
And better use my hands | |

What right have I? | |
