NO, NEVER MORE!
Farewell!—we are parted now!—
On thy heart and on thy brow
Is a shadow dark as night,
Which doth all my being blight:
We may meet on earth no more.
No, never more!
'Tis with grief I am amazed,—
We coldly on each other gazed:
While dark shadows deepen o'er,
We our lives must now deplore,
And may meet on earth no more.
No, never more!
We coldly on each other gazed:
While dark shadows deepen o'er,
We our lives must now deplore,
And may meet on earth no more.
No, never more!
Many a year may yet pass by
Ere we're called from earth, and die.
Then lift the sorrow from the heart
Ere we from this world depart:
We may meet on earth no more.
No, never more!
Ere we're called from earth, and die.
Then lift the sorrow from the heart
Ere we from this world depart:
We may meet on earth no more.
No, never more!
