paroles de chanson Oh! Alas, I Am in Love - June Tabor

Oh! Alas, I am in love, and cannot speak it
My mind I dare not move nor ne′er can break it
She doth so far excel all and each other
My mind I cannot tell, when we are together
But I'll take heart to me, I will reveal it
I′ll try her constancy, I'll not conceal it
But alas, but alas, I doe consider
I cannot break my mind, when we are together
The more I strive to hide, the more it flameth
These pains I cannot bide, my wits lameth
And it hidden be, will burn for ever
Unless I speak my mind, when we are together
I think 'twere good I tried, and went to prove her
And lay all fear aside, stoutly to move her
But when I am going to speak, my tongue doth quiver
And will not break my mind, when we are together
