¶Lyrics / Text

O well I love the Spring, When the sweet, sweet hawthorn blows; And well I love the Summer, And the coming of the rose. But dearer are the changing leaf, And the year upon the wane, For O they bring the blessed time That brings him home again. November may be dreary; December's days may be As full of gloom to others As once they were to me: But, O to hear the tempest Beat loud against the pane! For the roaring wind and the blessed time That brings him home again.
