Джон Доуленд (2) - What if I neuer speede - ноты, текст песни (слова)

What if I never speed, 
shall I straight yield to despair, 
and still on sorrow feed 
that can no loss repair; 
or shall I change my love, 
for I find pow'r to depart, 
and in my reason prove 
I can command my heart? 
But if she will pity my desire, 
and my love requite, 
then ever shall she live my dear delight. 
Come, come, come, while I have a heart to desire thee. 
Come, come, come, for either I will love or admire thee. 
Oft have I dreamed of joy, 
yet I never felt the sweete, 
But tired with annoy, 
my griefs each other greete. 
Oft have I left my hope, 
as a wretch by fate forlorn, 
But Love aims at one scope, 
and lost will still returne. 
He that once loves with a true desire 
never can depart, 
For Cupid is the king of every heart. 
Come, come, come, while I have a heart to desire thee. 
Come, come, come, for either I will love or admire thee.
