Bjork - Sonnets / Unrealities XI lyrics

It may not always be so And I say and if your lips Which I have loved should touch another's And your dear strong fingers clutch her heart As mine in time not far away If on another's face your sweet hair lay In such a silence as I know Or such great rising words, as uttering overmuch Stand helplessly before the spirit at bay If this should be, I say If this should be you of my heart Send me a little word That I may go unto her And take her hands saying Accept all happiness from me Then I shall turn my face And hear one bird sing terribly Afar in the lost lands
