emily bronte - i am the only being whose doom - eve karpf lyrics

Loading...

i am the only being whose doom
no tongue would ask, no eye would mourn;
i never caused a thought of gloom
a smile of joy, since i was born

in secret pleasure, secret tears
this changeful life has slipped away
as friendless after eighteen years
as lone as on my natal day

there have been times i cannot hide
there have been times when this was drear
when my sad soul forgot its pride
and longed for one to lovе me here

but thosе were in the early glow
of feelings since subdued by care;
and they have died so long ago
i hardly now believe they were

first melted off the hope of youth
then fancy’s rainbow fast withdrew;
and then experience told me truth
in mortal bosoms never grew

’twas grief enough to think mankind
all hollow, servile, insincere;
but worse to trust to my own mind
and find the same corruption there

- eve karpf lyrics
