richard burton - sweetest love, i do not go lyrics

sweetest love, i do not go
for weariness of thee
nor in hope the world can show
a fitter love for me;
but since that i
must die at last, ’tis best
to use myself in jest
thus by feign’d deaths to die

yesternight the sun went hence
and yet is here today;
he hath no desire nor sense
nor half so short a way:
then fear not me
but believe that i shall make
speedier journeys, since i takе
more wings and spurs than he

o how feeble is man’s powеr
that if good fortune fall
cannot add another hour
nor a lost hour recall!
but come bad chance
and we join to’it our strength
and we teach it art and length
itself o’er us to’advance
when thou sigh’st, thou sigh’st not wind
but sigh’st my soul away;
when thou weep’st, unkindly kind
my life’s blood doth decay
it cannot be
that thou lov’st me, as thou say’st
if in thine my life thou waste
that art the best of me

let not thy divining heart
forethink me any ill;
destiny may take thy part
and may thy fears fulfil;
but think that we
are but turn’d aside to sleep;
they who one another keep
alive, ne’er parted be
