lirik lagu ghizela rowe - over the may hill by ella wheeler wilcox

Loading...

all through the night time, and all through the day time
dreading the morning and dreading the night
nearer and nearer we drift to the may time
season of beauty and season of blight
leaves on the linden, and sun on the meadow
green in the garden, and bloom everywhere
gloom in my heart, and a terrible shadow
walks by me, sits by me, stands by my chair

oh, but the birds by the brooklet are cheery
oh, but the woods show such delicate greens
strange how you droop and how soon you are weary ~
too well i know what that weariness means
but how could i know in the crisp winter weather
(though sometimes i noticed a catch in your breath)
riding and singing and dancing together
how could i know you were racing with death?

how could i know when we danced until morning
and you were the gayest of all the gay crowd ~
with only that shortness of breath for a warning
how could i know that you danced for a shroud?
whirling and whirling through moonlight and starlight
rocking as lightly as boats on the wave
down in your eyes shone a deep light ~ a far light
how could i know ’twas the light to your grave?
day by day, day by day, nearing and nearing
hid under greenness, and beauty and bloom
cometh the shape and the shadow i’m fearing
“over the may hill” is waiting your tomb
the season of mirth and of music is over ~
i have danced my last dance, i have sung my last song
under the violets, under the clover
my heart and my love will be lying ere long
