WH Auden - But I Can't

2014-11-07 65 Dailymotion

Time will say nothing but I told you so, / <br />Time only knows the price we have to pay; / <br />If I could tell you I would let you know./ <br /> <br />If we should weep when clowns put on their show, / <br />If we should stumble when musicians play, / <br />Time will say nothing but I told you so./ <br /> <br />There are no fortunes to be told, although, / <br />Because I love you more than I can say, / <br />If I could tell you I would let you know./ <br /> <br />The winds must come from somewhere when they blow, / <br />There must be reasons why the leaves decay; / <br />Time will say nothing but I told you so./ <br /> <br />Perhaps the roses really want to grow, / <br />The vision seriously intends to stay; / <br />If I could tell you I would let you know./ <br /> <br />Suppose the lions all get up and go, / <br />And the brooks and soldiers run away; / <br />Will Time say nothing but I told you so? / <br />If I could tell you I would let you know./<br /><br />WH Auden<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/but-i-can-t/
