Behave Quote by A. E. Housman

“Oh when I was in love with you, Then I was clean and brave, And miles around the wonder grew How well did I behave. And now the fancy passes by, And nothing will remain, And miles around they'll say that I Am quite myself again.” quote by A. E. Housman — Download Open image
