Lyrics

[00:03.70] When we two parted,In silence and tears
[00:07.08] Half broken-hearted,To sever for years
[00:10.59] Pale grew thy cheek and cold,Colder thy kiss
[00:14.73] Truly that hour foretold Sorrow to this
[00:19.70] The dew of the morning,Sank chill on my brow
[00:23.46] It felt like the warning Of what I feel now
[00:26.38] Thy vows are all broken,And light is thy fame
[00:30.39] I hear thy name spoken,And share in its shame
[00:34.81] They name thee before me,A knell to mine ear
[00:38.31] A shudder comes o'er me,Why wert thou so dear?
[00:43.64] They know not I knew thee,Who knew thee too well
[00:47.92] Long, long shall I rue thee,Too deeply to tell
[00:55.09] In secret we met,In silence I grieve
[00:59.55] That thy heart could forget,Thy spirit deceive
[01:02.64] If I should meet thee After long years
[01:06.38] How should I greet thee?With silence and tears
