¶Lyrics / Text

Light leaves whisper touched by the evening breeze Pale moon beams glimmer A-falling thro’ the trees Sweet are these sights to weary hearts, Sweet are these sights to me Tho’ I can understand them ne’er Unless I am with thee. The nightingale may melt his soul in song, Shed all the thoughts which his small bosom throng But Oh my love, my gentle love, I never can understand The hidden meaning of these thing Unless thou art at hand.
