Heaven is incomplete without a heavenly romance. Let a glass of wine be my present circumstance Take what is here now, let go of a promised chance A drumbeat is best heard from a distance.
Same hands that formed Venus and Sun And wove the fabric that makes time run Same hands brought us here, and when done Will leave behind dust, as if we were none
If my coming were up to me, I’d never be born And if my going were on my accord, I’d go with scorn Isn’t it better that in this world, so old and worn Never to be born, neither stay, nor be away torn? I’d never be born, stay or leave, let it be known.
