Forget Him
!
Published as a song in
1846.
Music by Mr. George Simpson, Jun.
Forget
him! oh, how little they
Who counsel thus can know the feeling
Which graved his image on this heart,
And through its inmost core is stealing.
Forget him! they have never felt
The wild and throbbing pulse which tells
Where Love hath o'ertumed Reason's throne,
And monarch of the bosom dwells.
Forget him! yes, should madness pluck
Fond memory from this tortured brain,
Perchance, in mental darkness lost,
The vision ne'er may come again.
But while, as now, each varied sense
True to its idol, worships on,
This faithful heart shall be its shrine
When every other feeling's gone!
