[00:04.170] This, no song of ingénue,
[00:07.360] This, no ballad of innocence;
[00:10.960] This, the rhyme of a lady who
[00:14.460] Followed ever the natural bents.
[00:18.220] This, a solo of sapience,
[00:22.080] This, a chantey of sophistry,
[00:25.600] This, the sum of experiments,
[00:28.940] I loved them until they loved me.
[00:33.230] I loved them until they loved me.
[00:36.590] I loved them until they loved me.
[00:47.270] Decked in garments of sable hue,
[00:50.400] Daubed with ashes of myriad Lents,
[00:54.310] Wearing shower bouquets of rue,
[00:57.770] Walk I ever in penitence.
[01:01.530] Oft I roam, as my heart repents,
[01:04.910] Through God's acre of memory,
[01:08.550] Marking stones, in my reverence,
[01:11.920] I loved them until they loved me.
[01:16.030] I loved them until they loved me.
[01:19.760] I loved them until they loved me.
[01:29.660] Pictures pass me in long review,
[01:33.170] Marching columns of dead events.
[01:36.440] I was tender, and, often, true;
[01:40.170] Ever a prey to coincidence.
[01:44.160] Always knew I the consequence;
[01:47.920] Always saw what the end would be.
[01:51.500] We’re as Nature has made us -- hence
[01:55.110] I loved them until they loved me.Princes, never I’d give offense,
[01:58.840] I loved them until they loved me.Princes, never I’d give offense,
[02:02.160] I loved them until they loved me.Princes, never I’d give offense,
[02:12.800] I loved them until they loved me.Princes, never I’d give offense,
[02:16.380] Won’t you think of me tenderly?
[02:19.710] Here’s my strength and my weakness, gents
[02:27.480] This, no song of ingénue,
[02:30.860] This, no ballad of innocence;
