Sonnet: What Lips My Lips Have Kissed - Marilyn Horne/Martin Katz

Written by：Leonard Bernstein/Edna St. Vincent Millay/Jay David Saks

What lips my lips have kissed and where and why

I have forgotten and what arms have layin'

Under my head till morning

But the rain is full of ghosts tonight

That tap and sigh upon the glass and listen for reply

And in my heart there stirs a quiet pain

For unremembered lads that not again will turn to me

Will turn to me at midnight with a cry

Thus in the winter stands a lonely tree

Nor knows what birds have vanished one by one

Yet know it's boughs more silent more silent than before

I cannot say what loves have come and gone

I only know that summer sang in me

I only know that summer sang in me

A little while that in me sings no more
