Enough Rope/Nocturne
Appearance
Nocturne
ALWAYS I knew that it could not last
(Gathering clouds, and the snowflakes flying),
Now it is part of the golden past;
(Darkening skies, and the night-wind sighing)
It is but cowardice to pretend.
Cover with ashes our love’s cold crater,—
Always I’ve known that it had to end
Sooner or later.

Cover with ashes our love’s cold crater,—
Always I’ve known that it had to end
Sooner or later.
Always I knew it would come like this
(Pattering rain, and the grasses springing),
Sweeter to you is a new love’s kiss
(Flickering sunshine, and young birds singing).
Gone are the raptures that once we knew,
Now you are finding a new joy greater,—
Well, I’ll be doing the same thing, too,
Sooner or later.
