Waiting (O Mistress Mine)
O mistress mine Where are you roaming? O stay and hear Your true loves coming That can sing both high and low Trip no further pretty sweeting Journeys end in lovers meeting Every wise mans son doth know What comes now has gone tomorrow Present smiles are full of sorrow But I see you in my mind From the shadows of my memory I can feel you walking near me And I'm waiting for the rain to fall Dust from your eyes Angels are falling From distant fears Your cold hearts beating I can see you in the dark Or the flicker of a daydream From the edge of silent tears I remember and I smile What is love? Tis not hereafter Present mirth Hath present laughter What's to come is still unsure In delay there lies no plenty Then come kiss me sweet and twenty Youths a stuff twill not endure Aus Songtexte Mania
