If Music Be The Food Of Love
If music be the food of love,
sing on, sing on, sing on
till I am filled with joy
For then my list'ning soul you move
To pleasures, to pleasures that can
never cloy
Your eyes, your mien, your tongue declare
that you are music everywhere
Your eyes, your mien, your tongue declare
that you are music,
that you are music everywhere.
Pleasures invade both eye and ear,
so fierce the transports are
they wound, they wound, they wound,
And all my senses feasted are;
Tho' yet the treat is only sound,
Sure I must perish by your charms,
Unless you save me in your arms.
If music be the food of love,
sing on, sing on, sing on,
till I am filled with joy.
Sing on, sing on, sing on...
Henry Heveningham, David Dickau
