david arditti - life of my life, op. 22 lyrics

life of my life, take not so soone thy flight
but stay the time till we have bade good night
thou hast both wind and tide with thee; thy way
as soone dispatcht is by the night, as day
let us not then so rudely henceforth goe
till we have wept, kist, sigh’t, shook hands, or so
there’s paine in part#ing; and a kind of h#ll
when once true#lovers take their last fare#well
what? shall we two our endlesse leaves take here
with#out a sad looke, or a solemne teare?
he knowes not love, that hath not this truth proved
love is most loth to leave the thing beloved
pay we our vowes, and goe; yet when we part
then, even then, i will bequeath my heart
in#to thy loving hands: for ile keep none
to warme my breast, when thou my pulse art gone
no, here ile last, and walk (a harm#less shade)
a#bout this urne, where#in thy dust is laid
to guard it so, as nothing here shall be
heavy, to hurt those sacred seeds of thee
