even now - ned rorem lyrics

… even now the night jasmine is pouring
its white delirium in the dark and i
will not have it if you can’t i shut all
windows still it seeps in with the gaudy
oath of spring oh help be somewhere near
so i can endure this drunk intrusion
of promise where is the walled place where we
can walk untouched or must i be content
with a wedding i almost didn’t witness
the evidence all but lost no oath no ring
but the truth sealed to hold against the fate of [one]
… who fears his womеn
and men too full of laughter far brother
if you should pass bеneath our cypresses
you who are a praying man your god can
go to h*ll but since you are so inclined
pray that my friend and i be still together
just like this at the mount of olives blessed
by the last of an ancient race who loved
youth and laughter and beautiful things so much
they couldn’t stop singing and we were the song
