If music be the food of love, Z. 379

Henry Purcell

If music, if music be the food of love
Sing on, sing on
Sing, si...ing on
Till I am fill'd with jo..oy
Till I am fill'd with joy
For then my listening soul you mo...ove
For then my listening soul you mo...ove
You move
To plea...easures that can never never cloy
Your eyes, your mien, your tongue declare
That you are mu...usic everywhere
Your eyes, your mien, your tongue declare
That you are mu...usic everywhere

Pleasures invade both eye and ear
Pleasures invade both eye and ear
So fie...ierce, so fie...ierce
The transports are, they wou...ound
So fierce the transports are, they wound
And all my senses feasted are
And all my senses feasted are
Tho' yet the treat is only sound
Tho' yet the treat is only sound
Sound, sound, sound is only sound
Sure I must perish
In your arms
I must perish by your charms
Unless you sa...ave me in your arms

[ Henry Heveningham ]

If music be the food of love
Sing on till I am fill'd with joy;
For then my listening soul you move
With pleasures that can never cloy
Your eyes, your mien, your tongue declare
That you are music everywhere

Pleasures invade both eye and ear
So fierce the transports are, they wound
And all my senses feasted are
Tho' yet the treat is only sound
Sure I must perish by your charms
Unless you save me in your arms
