[Lyrics: I need some music for my brain As pansies need the dew; Sing that heart-breaking song again, And I will play for you, And I will play for you. Of old a sigh betray’d your breast, The courier of your pain, And just one tear-drop unrepress’d, Came, shone, and fled again, and fled again. You lov’d me then, And when you ask if I can play it yet, I sit and sound the tender task I never may forget. And if you falter at the part where long ago you sigh’d, Remember we are heart to heart serenely satisfied.]
