Lyrics

[00:00.64] Could we dig up this long－buried treasure，
[00:02.58] 　　Were it worth the pleasure，
[00:04.59] 　　We never could learn love's song，
[00:06.21] 　　We are parted too long．
[00:09.14] 　　Could the passionate past that is fled
[00:11.00] 　　Call back its dead，
[00:12.46] 　　Could we live it all over again，
[00:14.17] 　　Were it worth the pain！
[00:16.67] 　　I remember we used to meet
[00:18.19] 　　By an ivied seat，
[00:19.83] 　　And you warbled each pretty word
[00:21.69] 　　With the air of a bird；
[00:23.65] 　　And your voice had a quaver in it，
[00:25.68] 　　Just like a linnet，
[00:26.96] 　　And shook， as the blackbird's throat
[00:29.12] 　　With its last big note；
[00:31.16] 　　And your eyes， they were green and grey
[00:33.80] 　　Like an April day，
[00:35.26] 　　But lit into amethyst
[00:36.82] 　　When I stooped and kissed；
[00:39.01] 　　And your mouth， it would never smile
[00:40.81] 　　For a long， long while，
[00:42.66] 　　Then it rippled all over with laughter
[00:44.61] 　　Five minutes after．
[00:47.08] 　　You were always afraid of a shower，
[00:48.96] 　　Just like a flower：
[00:50.39] 　　I remember you started and ran
[00:52.08] 　　When the rain began．
[00:53.73] 　　I remember I never could catch you，
[00:55.39] 　　For no one could match you，
[00:56.84] 　　You had wonderful， luminous， fleet，
[00:59.24] 　　Little wings to your feet．
[01:01.68] 　　I remember your hair － did I tie it?
[01:04.75] 　　For it always ran riot
[01:06.17] 　　Like a tangled sunbeam of gold：
[01:08.35] 　　These things are old．
[01:11.61] 　　I remember so well the room，
[01:13.68] 　　And the lilac bloom
[01:15.15] 　　That beat at the dripping pane
[01:16.71] 　　In the warm June rain；
[01:19.24] 　　And the colour of your gown，
[01:20.62] 　　It was amber－brown，
[01:21.72] 　　And two yellow satin bows
[01:23.59] 　　From your shoulders rose．
[01:25.99] 　　And the handkerchief of French lace
[01:28.74] 　　Which you held to your face
[01:31.36] 　　Had a small tear left a stain?
[01:34.45] 　　Or was it the rain?
[01:37.22] 　　On your hand as it waved adieu
[01:38.97] 　　There were veins of blue；
[01:41.31] 　　In your voice as it said good－bye
[01:43.05] 　　Was a petulant cry，
[01:44.92] 　　'You have only wasted your life．'
[01:47.43] 　　（Ah， that was the knife！）
[01:50.96] 　　When I rushed through the garden gate
[01:52.78] 　　It was all too late．
[01:56.15] 　　Could we live it over again，
[01:58.39] 　　Were it worth the pain，
[02:00.35] 　　Could the passionate past that is fled
[02:02.30] 　　Call back its dead！
[02:05.20] 　　Well， if my heart must break，
[02:06.65] 　　Dear love， for your sake，
[02:08.14] 　　It will break in music， I know，
[02:10.31] 　　Poets' hearts break so．
[02:13.31] 　　But strange that I was not told
[02:15.36] 　　That the brain can hold
[02:17.55] 　　In a tiny ivory cell
[02:19.86] 　　God's heaven and hell．
[02:22.32] 　
[02:24.83]
