¶Lyrics / Text

I think on thee in the night, When all beside is still, And the moon comes out, with her pale, sad light, To sit on the lonely hill; When the stars are all like dreams, And the breezes all like sighs, And there comes a voice from the far-off streams Like thy spirit’s low replies. I think on thee in the day, Where throngs the busy crowd, Where the merry laugh of the young and gay Is far too glad and loud! Yet I hear thy soft, sad tone, And thy young, sweet smile I see: For my heart— my heart were all alone, But for sweetest dreams of thee!
