[1:17] | I followed her into the west, |
[1:22] | Where I had never been before; |
[1:27] | And never did she see me as, |
[1:33] | I stood there helpless by the door. |
[1:40] | Each day my resolution rose, |
[1:45] | And every day an oath I swore; |
[1:50] | Tonight I'd stand and be a man, |
[1:56] | Tonight I'd knock upon her door. |
[2:03] | and shifted pressed cleaned dressed, |
[2:08] | I set out my quest once more; |
[2:14] | But each night ended as the rest, |
[2:20] | I could not knock upon her door. |
[2:40] | I paced my room and I cursed myself, |
[2:45] | I swallowed that I would go no more; |
[2:50] | as the sun was sinking low, |
[2:55] | I heard a knocking out my door. |
[3:01] | And standing there with food for me, |
[3:05] | standing there my heart's delight; |
[3:11] | Who said, "I thought you must be ill, |
[3:17] | I missed you at my door tonight." |
[3:34] | "Now you must eat and you must sleep, “ |
[3:39] | Your resolution to restore; |
[3:44] | And when these dishes you return, |
[3:50] | Be sure to knock upon my door." |
