Lyrics

[00:02.000] Thy hand, Belinda,
[00:07.800] darkness shades me.
[00:17.100] On thy bosom let me rest,
[00:28.300] More I would,
[00:32.300] but Death invades me;
[00:38.600] Death is now a welcome guest.
[00:51.000]
[01:06.000] When I am laid,
[01:13.400] am laid in earth,
[01:21.400] May my wrongs create
[01:28.800] No trouble,
[01:33.900] no trouble in thy breast;
[01:48.000] When I am laid,
[01:54.400] am laid in earth,
[02:03.500] May my wrongs create
[02:11.800] No trouble,
[02:14.500] no trouble in thy breast;
[02:28.300] Remember me,
[02:36.000] remember me,
[02:42.600] but ah! forget my fate.
[02:56.100] Remember me,
[03:00.800] but ah! forget my fate.
[02:28.300] Remember me,
[02:36.000] remember me,
[02:42.600] but ah! forget my fate.
[02:56.100] Remember me,
[02:59.600] but ah! forget my fate.
[03:11.800] Remember me,
[03:20.900] remember me,
[03:25.300] but ah! forget my fate.
[03:37.300] Remember me,
[03:41.300] but ah! forget my fate.
