Well-A-Day!
Love comes and goes like a spell! How, no one knows, nor can tell! Now here--now there--then away! None dreameth where!--Well-a-day! Love should be true as the star Seen in the blue sky afar!-- Not here--now there--like the lay Of lutes in th' air!--Well-a-day! Should love depart, not a tie Binds up the heart till we die!-- Now here--now there--sad we stray Life is all care!--Well-a-day!
