Lyrics Afterthought - Study for the Ballet "Facsimile" - Remastered - Leonard Bernstein feat. Blanche Thebom

The lost one
The lost in love one
Never can die
The child-heart
The bleeding child-heart
Never can be dry
The heart's child
The wild-eyed heart's child
Never will cry
The love unspoken
Cannot be a lie
Softer, be softer, my song
We build our own imprisonment
In the sealed-up oaks of fear
We crouch in the old, old trunks
Menanned by threats of dispossession
And though we may send up a timid leaf
A tender bud
We'll rise too late
To greet our unknown loves
