"Alone" lyrics

"Alone"

From childhood's hour I have not been
As others were - I have not seen
As others saw - I could not bring
My passions from a common spring
From the same source I have not taken

My sorrow... I could not awaken My heart to joy
At the same tone
And all I lov'd, I lov'd alone

Then in my childhood in the dawn
Of a most stormy life was drawn
From ev'ry depth of good and ill
The mystery which binds me still

From the torrent, or the fountain
From the red cliff of the mountain
From the sun that 'round me roll'd
In its autumn tint of gold
From the lighting in the sky
As it pass'd me flying by

From the thunder and the storm
And the cloud that look the form
When the rest of Heaven was blue
Of a demon in my view
Of a demon in my view
