Evermore and a Day Lyrics

1929 West End
Bitter Sweet the Musical - Evermore and a Day Lyrics


Music and lyrics by Noël Coward.

CARL:
Why are you weeping, dear?
What shadow haunted you in sleeping, dear?
Though portents
And fears your courage may be plundering.
Your faith in my love should leave
No time for wondering.
Even your dreams are in my keeping, dear.

SARI:
Ah, no! My sweet,
Fate knows our happiness is too complete.
Though now in our love's security we live awhile
A little of heart's content the gods may give awhile,
Time's on the wing, my love, and time is fleet.

CARL:
Peace enfold you;
Here in my arms I will hold you,
Fears receding further and further away.

SARI:
Peace enfold me;
Here in your arms you will hold me,
Fears receding further and further away.

CARL:
Though the world may divide us,
And ill-fortune betide us,
Yet our love is a token
That cannot be broken
Or stolen away.
There's a passionate glory
In the heart of our story;
We have something to guide us
Evermore and a day.

CARL & SARI:
Though the world may divide us,
And ill-fortune betide us,
Yet our love is a token
That cannot be broken
Or stolen away.
There's a passionate glory
In the heart of our story;
We have something to guide us,
We have something to guide us,
Evermore and a day,
Evermore and a day.

SARI:
Peace enfold me,
Here in your arms you will hold me.

CARL:
Peace enfold you,
Here in my arms I will hold you.

BOTH:
Fears receding further and further away.
Fears receding further and further away.
