They have company tonight
Sigismund Thalberg
They have company tonight,
and the house is full of light.
Up there at the high window
moves a shadowy figure.
You do not see me; in the dark
here below, I stand alone.
Even less can you see
into my dark heart.
My dark heart loves you,
it loves you and it breaks;
it breaks and twitches and bleeds,
but you see none of this.
