The sea wind was blowing,
The sea wind was blowing,
Gaining trouble,
Gaining trouble,
And you said to me,
And you said to me:
Won't be back,
No longer come.
Fate is not clear,
Fate is not clear,
See there is no love,
See there is no love,
See me,
See me
Laughing at you,
Laughing at you...
I love you,
I love you,
Tell the truth,
Tell the truth,
Because you know yourself,
Because you know yourself,
Like you I'm waiting,
Like you I am waiting for.
What potions have I drank of Siren tears,
Distilled from limbecks foul as hell within,
Applying fears to hopes, and hopes to fears,
Still losing when I saw myself to win!
What wretched errors hath my heart committed,
Whilst it hath thought itself so blessed never!
How have mine eyes out of their spheres been fitted
In the distraction of this madding fever!
benefit of ill! now I find true
That better is by evil still made better,
And ruined love when it is built anew
Grows fairer than at first, more strong, far greater.
So I return rebuked to my content,
And gain by ill thrice more than I have spent.
