作曲 : DAVID SYLVIAN
作词 : EMILY DICKINSON
I should not dare to leave my friend, 
Because if he should die 
While I was gone and 
I too late, 
Should reach the heart that wanted me, 
If I should disappoint the eyes 
That hunted, hunted so, to see 
And could not bear to shut until 
He noticed me, he noticed me, 
If I should stab the patient faith 
So sure I'd come -so sure 
I?d come It listening, listening went to sleep 
Reciting my tardy name. 
My heart would wish it broke before 
Since breaking then, since breaking then, 
Is useless as next morning?s sun 
To erase a midnight's tear. 
By Emily Dickinson
