To One In Paradise Lyrics
You were all that to me, love
For which my soul did pine
A green isle in the sea, love
A fountain and a shrine
All wreathed with fruits and flowers
And the flowers were all mine
And all my days are trances
And all my nightly dreams
Are where your grey eye glances
And where your footstep gleams
In what ethereal dances
By what eternal streams.
Dream too bright to last!
Starry Hope! that did arise
But to be overcast
A voice from out the Future cries
Mute motionless aghast
My spirit hovering lies
(Chorus)
Alas! alas! With me
The light of Life is over!
(Such language holds the sea
To the sands upon the shore)
Shall bloom the thunder-blasted tree
Or the stricken eagle soar!
(Chorus)
