And so you have come back to me

And say the old loves growing yet

You've tried through all these weary years

You've tried so vainly to forget

Chrous:



Oh no, i cannot take your hand

God never gives is back our youth

The loving heart you slighted then

Was yours, my friend, in perfect truth



Come close and let me see your face

Your raven hair is tinged with snow

Oh, yes, it is the same dear face

I loved so many years ago



Repeat chorus



Farewell, i think i love you yet

As friend to friend, god bless you dear

And guide you through these weary years

To where the skies are always clears



Repeat chorus
