Tamino - Persephone

Yes my^Em love, I confe^Fss to you I am on^Emly here to break your^F heart in two The ver^Gy flower you c^Fhose that day Its only^G task was to de^Fcay You ^Amsee?

When I^Em watched your fir^Fst bathing I only wa^Emrned you with a low^Fered voice "Be w^Gary of my river's^F undertow It flow^Gs with water from the ^Fcoldest source" Did yo^Amu hear?

And ^Bmthen I made sure You ^Bmwould always re^Cturn You ^Bmstill know of dawn But y^Bmou always retu^Crn

When y^Emou hid under my b^Flack wings They co^Emuldn't have protected you from^F anything Once i^Gn flight they would h^Fave let go You w^Gould have once again wo^Fund up below Only ^Ambroken

Inde^Emed, it's wrong to keep yo^Fu near me One c^Emould call me cruel and ^Fdeceiving But ^Gin your sacred air I am f^Full of light Your l^Goving arms are the tr^Fue delight To wh^Amich I'm lost

And ^Bmyou've noticed it There^Bm is something rig^Cht here You hav^Bme come to love, yes you've come to^C love What you^Am always will fear

Yes^Em, my love, I confes^Fs to you I've no^Emthing but the means to br^Feak your heart in two My part^G in yours may seem i^Fmportant now But wit^Gh every spring it will ^Fseem so small Jus^Emt for now I am you^Fr fall I ^Emam your fall I am^F your fall
