I should not dare to leave my friend,
|
I should not dare to leave my friend, Because -- because if he should die While I was gone -- and I -- too late -- Should reach the Heart that wanted me -- If I should disappoint the eyes That hunted -- hunted so -- to see -- And could not bear to shut until They "noticed" me -- they noticed me -- If I should stab the patient faith So sure I'd come -- so sure I'd come -- It listening -- listening -- went to sleep -- Telling my tardy name -- My Heart would wish it broke before -- Since breaking then -- since breaking then -- Were useless as next morning's sun -- Where midnight frosts -- had lain! |
