Agathodaimon - Departure lyrics
[Agathodaimon - Departure lyrics]
We part for ever from today
Farewell beloved one
And I, unto may death, your way will shun
I care not now where you may go
You can no more bereave me
Today the sweetest girl I know does leave me
And the air still moves my curtain
As it used in times of yore
Moonlight down the lane uncertain
Only you come nevermore
Nor shall I as in former hours
Build Spanish castles high
With star-lit windows, and with towers of sky
When, shivering with bitter cold
Through winter nights uncertain
I watched lest you perhaps unfold
Your curtain
O what delight to stroll with you
Beneath that flowering trees
When poured it's light their branches through
The moon
That I might catch with rapturous thrill
The words that you let fall
And that today I barely still recall
How often did I secretly pray
Swift night her sails would furl
That we might thus forever stray fair girl
Farewell beloved one
And I, unto may death, your way will shun
I care not now where you may go
You can no more bereave me
Today the sweetest girl I know does leave me
And the air still moves my curtain
As it used in times of yore
Moonlight down the lane uncertain
Only you come nevermore
Nor shall I as in former hours
Build Spanish castles high
With star-lit windows, and with towers of sky
When, shivering with bitter cold
Through winter nights uncertain
I watched lest you perhaps unfold
Your curtain
O what delight to stroll with you
Beneath that flowering trees
When poured it's light their branches through
The moon
That I might catch with rapturous thrill
The words that you let fall
And that today I barely still recall
How often did I secretly pray
Swift night her sails would furl
That we might thus forever stray fair girl
