Bernard Dewulf - Dido's Lament lyrics

Time is done with us. This very night it will drive me to dawn In another land. New daybreak there will wake me Up at an unfathomable window. No one is ever made for someone. Sometimes We get knotted in the lamentation of a counterheart. And isn't every moment, as you said, at every moment Ready for everyone's infinity? Infinity is over now. I want my time And my good times. It moves our timepiece heart apace As it fails truly for some twenty lovely lines- But, in the mirror, it just fails you to your face. I'm going now, dear neverman of mine. I'm of this side. I am wrought of woman. I hold you dear. I hold you, dear, alone; it's how we breathe. My new land will wash me in its streaming waters, Rock me in its tidy beds, conceive me in its language. I'll make a thousand pictures of you there And your emptiness will bore and bore me as I stare.
