No One So Much As You (Edward Thomas)

Am C
No one so much as you
Am F
Loves this my clay,
C G
Or would lament as you
Am
Its dying day.

C G
You know me through and through
F Am
Though I have not told,
F C
And though with what you know
Am
You are not bold.

Dm Am
None ever was so fair
F C
As I thought you:
Dm Am
Not a word can I bear
G Am
Spoken against you.

All that I ever did
For you seemed coarse
Compared with what I hid
Nor put in force.

My eyes scarce dare meet you
Lest they should prove
I but respond to you
And do not love.

We look and understand,
We cannot speak
Except in trifles and
Words the most weak.

For I at most accept
Your love, regretting
That is all: I have kept
Only a fretting

That I could not return
All that you gave
And could not ever burn
With the love you have,

Till sometimes it did seem
Better it were
Never to see you more
Than linger here

Dm Am
With only gratitude
C Am
Instead of love –
G Am
A pine in solitude
G Am
Cradling a dove.
