Ernestina's Song - Lead sheet
Ernestina’s Song

He parts the masses of her golden hair,
He lifts her, helpless, with a shuddering care,
He looks into her face with awestruck eyes; 
[repeat]

​
She dies
               The darling of his soul
She dies
​               The darling of his soul
She dies
                Dies

He parts the masses of her golden hair,
He lifts her, helpless, with a shuddering care,
He looks into her face with awestruck eyes; 

​[repeat]

Sarah's Theme - all voices

And once, but once, she lifted her eyes
And suddenly, sweetly, strangely blush'd to find

And once, but once, she lifted her eyes
And suddenly, sweetly, strangely blush'd to find, find they were met

And my false love will weep, a
nd my false love will weep
And my false love will weep for me after I’m gone
After I’m gone, after I’m gone

In a tortured mind truth is hard to find only the wind blows, the wind blows

In a tortured mind truth is hard to find only the wind blows, the wind blows

And once, but once, she lifted her eyes
She lifted her eyes
They were met
