Die Schöne Müllerin D. 795: Vii. Ungeduld

I want to carve it deep on every tree
To paint it high on every wall I see
I want to sow the words in watercress
So everyone could read my happiness
So everyone can see
The very heart of me

You are my love, you are my love
And you [A7and [Bm]I will love for [Dm7]ever

I want to [C7]teach it to [C7]a singing bird
So he could then ɾepeat it word for [Dm7]word
So he can jubilantly sing your praise
In joyous folderols and [Bm]ɾoundelays
And he would sing it, so
That everyone would know

You are my [A]love, you [A7are my [A]love
And you [A7and [Bm]I will love for [Dm7]ever

I want to [C7]breathe it on [C7]the morning air
A secret message for [Dm7]the wind to [C7]bear
I want to [C7]share it with the passing breeze
And send it ɾustling through the poplar tɾees
And all [Em]around the land
So you [A7can understand

You are my [A]love. You are my [A]love
And you [A7and [Bm]I will love forever

The words I long [Am]to [C7]say and [Bm]daren’t speak
The world can see them [A]in my [A]burning cheek
The world can hear them [A]in my [A]aching sighs
Or else divine them [A]from my [A]shining eyes
The words I daren't say
Are giving me away

You are my [A]love, you [A7are my [A]love
And you [A7and [Bm]I will love for [Dm7]ever
