Songtext von Flow My Tears

Flow, my tears, fall from your springs! Exiled for ever, let me mourne There nights black bird hir sad infamy sings There let me live forlorne Downe, vaine lights, shine you no more! No nights are dark enough for those That in despaire their lost fortunes deplore Light doth but shame disclose Never may my woes be relieved Since pity is fled And tears and sighs and groanes my weary dayes My weary dayes Of all joys have deprived From the highest spire of contentment My fortune is throwne And feare and griefe and paine for my deserts For my deserts Are my hopes, since hope is gone Hark! You shadowes that in darkness dwell Learne to contemne light Happie, happie they that in hell Feele not the worlds despite Hark! You shadowes that in darkness dwell Learne to contemne light Happie, happie they that in hell Feele not the worlds despite
