Edward Young

Edward Young (c. 3 July 1683 – 5 April 1765) was an English poet, best remembered for Night-Thoughts, a series of philosophical writings in blank verse, reflecting his state of mind following several bereavements. It was one of the most popular poems of the century, influencing Goethe and Edmund Burke, among many others, with its notable illustrations by William Blake. Young also took holy orders, and wrote many fawning letters in search of preferment, attracting accusations of insincerity. more »

This is the rhyme of love and lust
I'm slowly melting under blue skies
Move a little closer, earn your trust
I'm seeing the world in the gleam in your eyes
Do you see beneath my shell?
I've dug my hole too deep, now I'm picking the dirt from my nails
Do you notice when I'm not around?
When you're blocking those voices, that sound
Change my colours but I won't change my tune
Let me learn from my mistakes
No matter what they say, it will always be you
I won't let you, I won't let you fade away
Gonna drown my sorrows one by one
Under the weather, soaked by the rain
If I could live my life once more
I'd kiss those sugar-sweet lips again and again
Every night I dream only of you
My love was hiding right behind me
Made me see we're one in the same
All I know is I'm to blame
Change my colours but I won't change my tune
Let me learn from my mistakes
No matter what they say, it will always be you
I won't let you, I won't let you fade away
I couldn't see you but I'll never go blind
I'm ready now you've shown your mercy
I'll lead the way, I'm a mercenary
I know what to do, I'm a visionary
Change my colours but I won't change my tune
Let me learn from my mistakes
No matter what they say, it will always be you
I won't let you, I won't let you fade away
Gimme one more chance 'cause I won't need a few
I've got nothing to hide, so come and find me
We still dwell on love and solitude
Let me, let me love you now
