what the soul desires - donovan lyrics

Loading...

there is a rapture that my soul desires
there is a something that i cannot name
i know not after what my soul aspires
nor guess from when the restless longing came

but ever from my childhood have i felt it
in all things beautiful, in all things gay
and ever has its gentle unseen presence
falling like a shadow cloud across my way

it is the melody in all sweet music
in all fair forms it is the hidden grace
in all i love, a something that escapes me
flies by pursuit and ever visits face

i see it in the woodlands, silver beauty
i feel it in the breathing of the air
i stretch my hand to grasp for i can’t touch it
but i do, well, i know it is not there

la la la la la la
la la la la la la
la la la la la
la la la la la
la la la la la
la la la la la la la la la

but ever from my childhood have i felt it
in all things beautiful, in all things gay
and ever has its gentle unseen presence
falling like a shadow cloud across my way

there is a rapture
