we'll go no more a - roving
by George Gordon, Lord Byron (1788-1824)
So, we'll go no more
a-roving
So late into the night,
Though the hear be still as loving,
And the moon be still as bright.
For the sword outwears
its sheath,
And the soul wears out the breast,
And the heart must pause to breathe,
And love itself have rest.
Though the night was
made for loving.
And the day returns too soon,
Yet we'll go no more a-roving
Bu the light of the moon.
