Those Dancing Days Are Gone |
Come, let me sing into your ear |
Those dancing days are gone |
All the silk and satin gear |
Crouch upon a stone |
Wrapping that foul body up |
In as foul a rag: |
I carry the sun in a golden cup |
The moon in a silver bag |
I carry the sun in a golden cup |
The moon in a silver bag |
Curse as you may I sing it through |
What matter if the knave |
That the most could pleasure you |
The children that he gave |
Are somewhere sleeping like a top |
Under a marble flag? |
I carry the sun in a golden cup |
The moon in a silver bag |
I carry the sun in a golden cup |
The moon in a silver bag |
I thought it out this very day |
Noon upon the clock |
A man may put pretence away |
Who leans upon a stick |
May sing, and sing until he drop |
Whether to maid or hag: |
I carry the sun in a golden cup |
The moon in a silver bag |
