One press of Sing plays this song on this device (0:51) and stops after the last: the piano and the words come from the score, so a key change or a slower tempo changes no sound file.
The microphone is asked for only when you press its button. What it hears is measured and scored on this device and never leaves it; nothing is kept unless you record and save the file yourself. What is kept, and where.
The words
Come, O my love! Come, fly to me;
All my soul Cries out for thee: Haste to thy
home, I long for thee, Faint for thee,
Worship thee only,-- but Come! Dark is the
wood,-- The track's ever lonely and gray:
But joyous the blaze That welcomes and shews
thee the way.
Come, O my love! Come, fly to me;
All my soul Cries out for thee: Haste to thy
rest, I long for thee, Sigh for thee,
Faint for thee; Come to my breast.
Cold is the stream,-- The ford is a danger to
thee:
My heart is a flame, As the beacon that lights
thee to me.
Come, O my love! Come, fly to me;
All my soul Cries out for thee: Haste to thy
home, I long for thee, Faint for thee,
Worship thee only; but Come!
