| YOU and I have found the secret way, | |
| None can bar our love or say us nay: | |
| All the world may stare and never know | |
| You and I are twined together so. | |
| |
| You and I for all his vaunted width | 5 |
| Know the giant Space is but a myth; | |
| Over miles and miles of pure deceit | |
| You and I have found our lips can meet. | |
| |
| You and I have laughed the leagues apart | |
| In the soft delight of heart to heart. | 10 |
| If there’s a gulf to meet or limit set, | |
| You and I have never found it yet. | |
| |
| You and I have trod the backward way | |
| To the happy heart of yesterday, | |
| To the love we felt in ages past. | 15 |
| You and I have found it still to last. | |
| |
| You and I have found the joy had birth | |
| In the angel childhood of the earth, | |
| Hid within the heart of man and maid. | |
| You and I of Time are not afraid. | 20 |
| |
| You and I can mock his fabled wing, | |
| For a kiss is an immortal thing. | |
| And the throb wherein those old lips met | |
| Is a living music in us yet. | |
