Sonnets / Unrealities XI (Live on September 3rd, 2013) - First Take
[Audience Applause]

[Verse 1]
It may not always be so
And I say that if your lips
Which I have loved
Should touch another's
And your dear strong fingers clutch her heart
As mine in time not far away

[Verse 2]
If on another's face your sweet hair lay
In such a silence as I know
Or such great writhing words, as uttering overmuch
Stand helplessly before the spirit at bay

[Verse 3]
If this should be, I say
If you should say
You of my heart, show me a little word
That I may go unto her, and take her hands, saying
Accept all happiness from me
Then I shall turn my face
And hear one birds sing terribly afar in the lost lands

[Spoken]
Since we are e filming I would like to ask you:
Do you mind if we take this one more time?
'Cus I want to record it — with a lead
It has much better sound
It's not like tss tss tss it's like mmmm
So, one more time
[Audience Applause]
