We lived alone, my house and I.We had the earth, we had the sky.I had a lamp against the dark,and I was happy as a lark.We lived alone, my house and I.We had the earth, we had the sky.I had a lamp against the dark,and I was happy as a lark.I had a stove and a window-screen,I had a table painted green.Sat on a chair with a broken back,wearing a pretty potato sack.I had a rug upon the floor,and roses grew around my door.I had a job; my wants were few.They were until I wanted you.And when I set my eyes on you,nothing else would do, nothing else would do.
