Version 1 of the lyrics

1  Come in out of the rain thou sayest -                                     Come in out of the rain thou sayest - but thou ne'er step'st aside 1
2  but thou ne'er stept'st aside;   And I am trapp'd         2
3  And I am trapp'd - A distance there is...                           A distance there is... 3
4  None, save me and the bodkin - pitter-patter on the roof;   None, save me and the bodkin - pitter-patter on the roof 4
5  Behold! - 'tis not the rain; thence me it has to be -   Behold!    'tis not the rain, thence me it has to be    5
6  I will not drink thy vintage wine, my dear;   I will not drink thy vintage wine, my dear 6
7  Thou hast heed'd that I am of innocence,                                              Thou hast heed'd that I am of innocence, yet thou let'st thy lass into peril 7
1  Yet thou let'st thy lass into peril -   1
8  Thou let'st me be parched;   Thou let'st me be parched 8
  My heart is of frailty, my pale skin is hued damask.  My heart is of frailty, my pale skin is hued damask.
9  When thou thy tears hast hidden,                                 When thou thy tears hast hidden, "Come back!", thou sayest 9
10  "Come back!" thou sayest - There I soon am to be -                                                                                      There I soon am to be, but how am I to run when my bones, my heart! 10
11  But how am I to run when my bones, my heart   Thou hast me bereaft!                                       11
12  Thou hast me bereaft - But run thou sayest;                                       But run thou sayest, I run 12
13  I run - And there and then I behold                                                                          And there and then I behold that a time will come when I again dead will be. 13
14  that a time will come when I again dead will be.   Thou tell'st me to leave without delay                         14
2  Thou tell'st me to leave without delay -   2
  I leave with my bodkin and my tears in my hands;  I leave with my bodkin and my tears in my hands;
15  Lo! - the shadows, the sky - descending;   Lo!    the shadows, the sky    descending; 15
16  So by a dint of smite I gait ere I run                                     So by a dint of smite I gait ere I run and melt together with dusk. 16
3  and melt together with dusk.   3
  In my mind in which is this event,  In my mind in which is this event,
  But it seems as if naught is to change anyway?!  But it seems as if naught is to change anyway?!
17  After all these years thou left'st me                                     After all these years thou left'st me down in the emotional depths 17
4  down in the emotional depths -   4
  The sombre soaked velvet-drape is hung upon me,  The sombre soaked velvet-drape is hung upon me,
18  Turning my feelings away from our so ignorant world;   Turning my feelings away from our so ignorant world 18
19  All the beautiful moments shared, deliberately push'd aside -   All the beatiful moments shared, deliberatlely push'd aside    19
20  ...a distance there is...   A distance there is... 20
