Frédéric Chopin and Joseph Lawrenson - Nocturne

My books lie unopened
We’ve barely left a word unspoken
Exploring the grounds
Of this big old house
Mother, don’t you worry I’m in good company

There’s news from Szafarnia
Today we rode out to the country
I’m not so good
Dominic thinks I should
Stick to the paper and the ivory

But my health ain’t so great
Six cups of coffee each day
And I long to see you
But how I wish I could stay

There’s a girl
Called Konstancja
She sings like a siren of titan
But my heart must insist
She won’t know I exist
There’s holes in her favorite brown pullover sleeves

But my health ain’t so great
Six cups of coffee each day
And I long to see you
But how I wish I could stay
