Sudden Light

[00:16.64]	I have been here before,
[00:19.71]	But when or how I cannot tell:
[00:22.28]	I know the grass beyond the door,
[00:24.71]	The sweet keen smell,
[00:27.19]	The sighing sound, the lights around the shore.
[00:32.14]	You have been mine before,—
[00:34.90]	How long ago I may not know:
[00:36.76]	But just when at that swallow's soar
[00:39.29]	Your neck turn'd so,
[00:41.20]	Some veil did fall,—I knew it all of yore.
[00:47.17]	Has this been thus before?
[00:49.79]	And shall not thus time's eddying flight
[00:52.48]	Still with our lives our love restore
[00:55.70]	In death's despite,
[00:57.97]	And day and night yield one delight once more?
