Lines Written in Dejection by Giorgio Rossini Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 2014

When have I last looked on
The round green eyes and the long wavering bodies
Of the dark leopards of the moon?
All the wild witches, those most noble ladies
For all their broom-sticks and their tears
Their angry tears‚ are gone
The holy centaurs of the hills are vanished;
I have nothing but the embittered sun;
Banished heroic mother moon and vanished
And now that I have come to fifty years
I must endure the timid sun
