Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sweetest love, I do not go
For weariness of thee
Nor in hope, the world can show
A fitter love for me
[Verse 2]
But since that, I must die at last
It is best to use myself in jest
Thus by faint deaths to die
[Verse 3]
Yesternight, the sun went out
And yet is here today
He has no desire nor sense
Nor half so short away
[Verse 4]
And fear not me, but believe that I
Shall make speedier journeys since I take
More wings and spurs than he
[Verse 5]
Oh, how feeble is man's power
That if good fortune falls
Cannot add another hour
Nor a lost hour recall
[Verse 6]
But come that chance and we join to it
Our strength and we teach it, art and length
Itself over us to advance
[Verse 7]
When you sigh, you sighed away
But sigh my soul away
When you weep unkindly kind
My life's blood does decay
[Verse 8]
It cannot be that you, that you love me as you say
If in your life, mine you waste
You are the best of me
