Питер Хэйн

Some girls I worship from afar

to passionate excess.

But when I meet them face to face

I love them rather less.

Some other girls I love afresh

each time I meet again.

It's not until they're out of sight

that love begins to wane.

But you alone, my love, I love

wherever you may be.

So you can stay, or go away, -

it's all the same to me.
