Lyrics Dowland: What if I Never Speed? - Peter Pears, Julian Bream, Джон Доуленд

Dowland: What if I Never Speed?

What if I never speed
Shall I straight yield to despair
And still on sorrow feed
That can on loss repair
Or shall I change my love
For I find pow’r to depart
And in my reason prove
I can command my heard?
But if she will pity my desire
And my love requite
Then ever shall she live my dear delight
Come, come, come, while I have a heart to
Desire thee
Come, come, come, for either I will love or admire thee
Oft have I dreamed of joy
Yet I never felt the sweete
But tired with annoy
My griefs each other greete
Oft have I left my hope
As a wretch by fate forlorn
But Love aims at one scope
And lost will still returne
He that once loves with a true desire
Never can depart
For Cupit is the king of every heart
Come, come, come, while I have a heart to
Desire thee
Come, come, come, for either I will love or
Admire thee
Come, come, come, while I have a heart to desire thee
