Darkseed - Love's Heavy Burden Lyrics
Music: Hertrich/WinklerLyrics: HertrichUnder love's heavy burden do I sinkCan I go forward when my heart is here ?I cannot be here, here and there,there and here for You and Iare past our dancing daysI like the lightningwhich does cease to beere one can say "I see"Beauty too rich for use,for earth too dearDid my heart love 'till now ?I forswear !Regions near me seemed all aloneMy mutual cry she never heard againNow sadness is beloved, and love we gainAlike bewitched by charm of looksNight sable Goddess,from Your ebon throneEvery eye is fixed on You aloneI thank You, Moon, for showing me the wayTrip away, make me stay, meet me allby break of dayYou made mine eyes and merry tearsO grim-looked night, the way you fear !Full many flowers born to blush unseenAnd waste their sweetness now,share their last gleamTrip away, make me stay,meet me all by break of day !Heaven/hell, shadow-dancerheatened blood makes holy hands uncleanMine eyes look sad,the grim-looked night awaystare around the sphereto blush unseen - Your tearsWhen You turn awayLeave me out of the endTurn Your insane outLeave me, if You willAway from light steals forth my soulI want give cure as knowBut love's a smoke with fume of sighsSo swallow down and rise, autumn rise
