AS YOU USED TO DO by ANONYMOUS

First Line: THE WAYS OF LOVE AND TENDERNESS
Last Line: KISS HER AS YOU USED TO DO
Subject(s): MOTHERS;
THE ways of love and tenderness
Are never out of style;
Remember this and tell her so--
Don't wait till after a while.

Let not affection wane with years;
It waneth not for you.
Go, put your arms around her now--
Kiss her as you used to do.
