Lorena

[00:11.71] The years creep slowly by, Lorena

[00:17.72] The snow is on the grass again

[00:23.25] The sun's low down the sky, Lorena

[00:29.02] The frost gleams where the flowers have been

[00:34.54] But the heart throbs on as warmly now

[00:40.31] As when the summer days were nigh

[00:45.58] Oh, the sun can never dip so low

[00:51.59] A-down affection's cloudless sky

[00:57.37] Oh, the sun can never dip so low

[01:02.88] A-down affection's cloudless sky

[01:08.81] We loved each other then, Lorena

[01:13.72] More than we ever dared to tell

[01:19.99] And what we might have been, Lorena

[01:25.50] Had but our lovings prospered well

[01:31.19] But then, 'tis past, the years have gone

[01:36.71] And I'll not call up their shadowy forms

[01:42.22] I'll say to them "Lost years, sleep on!

[01:47.99] Sleep on! nor heed life's pelting storm"

[01:53.76] I'll say to them "Lost years, sleep on!

[01:59.27] Sleep on! nor heed life's pelting storm"

[02:49.91] It matters little now, Lorena

[02:55.42] The past is in the eternal past

[03:01.07] Our heads will soon lie low, Lorena

[03:06.59] Life's tide is ebbing out so fast

[03:12.11] There is a Future! O, thank God!

[03:17.75] Of life this is so small a part!

[03:23.02] 'Tis dust to dust beneath the sod

[03:29.18] But there, up there, 'tis heart to heart

[03:34.71] 'Tis dust to dust beneath the sod

[03:40.11] But there, up there, 'tis heart to heart
