Samuel Barber – Outside this house Lyrics
Artist: Samuel Barber
Song: Outside this house
Outside this house the world has changed
Life is swifter than before; there is no time for idle gestures
I cannot offer you eternal love
For we have learned today such words are lies
But the brief pleasure of passion, yes, and sweet, long friendship
Who can resist your gentle beauty, Erika?
Oh, how happy we could be together! Erika!
Do you know Paris and Rome, Budapest and Vienna?
The velvet rooms for jeweled suppers
The coast of Spain for solitude
The gilded Grand Hotels for dancing
The glass and marble stations for goodbyes?
This we could share together if you accept my love
And, who knows, my love might last forever, Erika
Life is so brief
