When we two parted

[Intro] [Verse 1] When we two parted In silence and tears, Half broken-hearted To sever for years, Pale grew thy cheek and cold, Colder thy kiss; Truly that hour foretold Sorrow to this. [Verse 2] The dew of the morning Sunk chill on my brow It felt like the warning Of what I feel now. Thy vows are all broken, And light is thy fame; I hear thy name spoken, And share in its shame. [Verse 3] They name thee before me, A knell to mine ear; A shudder comes o’er me Why wert thou so dear? They know not I knew thee, Who knew thee too well Long, long shall I rue thee, Too deeply to tell. [Chorus] In secret we met In silence I grieve, That thy heart could forget, Thy spirit deceive. If I should meet thee After long years, How should I greet thee? With silence and tears.
