You’re not alone when You are still alone by Michael Drayton Lyrics

Genre: misc | Year: 2022

You’re not alone when You are still alone
O God! from You that I could private be!
Since You one were, I never since was one;
Since You in Me, my self since out of Me.
Transported from my Self into your Being,
Though either distant, present yet to either:
Senselessly with too much joy, each other seeing;
And only absent, when We are together.
Give me my self! and take your self again!
Devise some means but how I may forsake You!
So much is mine that doth with You remain,
That taking what is mine, with me I take You!
You do bewitch Me! O that I could fly
From my self You, or from your own self I!
