Edna St. Vincent Millay - Indifference lyrics

I said,—for Love was laggard, O, Love was slow to come,—  "I'll hear his step and know his step when I am warm in bed; But I'll never leave my pillow, though there be some  As would let him in—and take him in with tears!" I said. I lay,—for Love was laggard, O, he came not until dawn,—  I lay and listened for his step and could not get to sleep; And he found me at my window with my big cloak on,  All sorry with the tears some folks might weep!
