Edna St. Vincent Millay - Only until this cigarette is ended lyrics

Only until this cigarette is ended A little moment at the end of all While on the floor the quiet ashes fall And in the firelight to a lance extended Bizarrely with the jazzing music blended The broken shadow dances on the wall I will permit my memory to recall The vision of you, by all my dreams attended And then adieu,—farewell!—the dream is done Yours is a face of which I can forget The color and the features, every one The words not ever, and the smiles not yet; But in your day this moment is the sun Upon a hill, after the sun has set
