John Mcdermott - Believe Me if All Those Endearing Young текст песни

Believe me if all those endearing young charms : to my mother

Beleive me if all those endearing young charms

Which I gave on so fondly today

Were to change by tomorrow and fleet in my arms

Like the fairy gifts fading away

Though would still be adored as this moment thou art

Let thy loveliness fade as it will

And around the dear ruin each wish of my heart

Would entwine itself verdantly still

It is not while beauty and youth are thine own

And thy cheeks unprofaned by a tear

That the fervour and faith of a soul can be known

To which time will but make thee more dear

No the heart which has truly loved never forgets

But as truly loves on to the close

As the sunflower turns on her guard when he sets

The same look which she turned when he rose
