a woman's face - reprise (sonnet 20) - rufus wainwright lyrics
Loading...
[verse]
a woman’s face with nature’s own hand painted
hast thou, the master-mistress of my p-ssion
a woman’s gentle heart, but not acquainted
with shifting change, as is false women’s fashion
an eye more bright than theirs, less false in rolling
gilding the object whereupon it gazeth
a man in hue, all hues in his controlling
much steals men’s eyes and women’s souls amazeth
and for a woman wert thou first created
till nature, as she wrought thee, fell a-doting
and by addition me of thee defeated
by adding one thing to my purpose nothing
but since she pr-ck’d thee out for women’s pleasure
mine be thy love and thy love’s use their treasure
