eleanor mcevoy - believe me, if all those endearing young charms lyrics

Loading...

believe me, if all those endearing young charms
which i gaze on so fondly today
were to change by tomorrow, and fleet in my arms
like fairy-gifts, fading away!
thou wouldst still be ador’d as this moment thou art
let thy loveliness fade as it will;
and, around the dear ruin, each wish of my heart
would entwine itself verdantly still!

it is not while beauty and youth are thine own
or thy cheeks unprofan’d by a tear
that the fervour and faith of a soul can be known
to which time can but make thee more dear!
no! the heart that has truly lov’d, never forgets
but as truly loves on to the close;
as the sun-flower turns to her god, when he sets
the same look which she turn’d when he rose!
