II. The Secrets of the Old - Filippo Farinelli/Leilah Dione Ezra/Mauro Borgioni/Elisabetta Lombardi
Lyrics by:Samuel Barber
Composed by:Samuel Barber
I have old women's secrets now
That had those of the young
Madge tells me what I dared not think
When my blood was strong
And what had drowned a lover once
Sounds like an old song
Though Marg'ry is stricken dumb
If thrown in Madge's way
We three make up a solitude
For none alive today
Can know the stories that we know
Or say the things we say
How such a man pleased women most
Of all that are gone
How such a pair loved many years
And such a pair but one
Stories of the bed of straw
Or the bed of down
