john ireland - i was not sorrowful (spleen) lyrics

Loading...

i was not sorrowful, i could not weep
and all my memories were put to sleep

i watched the river grow more white and strange
all day till evening i watched it change

all day till evening i watched the rain
beat wearily upon the window pane

i was not sorrowful, but only tired
of everything that ever i desired

her lips, her eyes, all day became to me
the shadow of a shadow utterly

all day [mine]1 hunger for her heart became
oblivion, until the evening came

and left me sorrowful, inclined to weep
with all my memories that could not sleep
