g Down banks of haze; now with nights dawn
The moon CLOVIS warm, like one carest:
And still, as the short day through,
sit alone and think of you,
Darling-my darling.
Where are you, sweet, this winter night
Shines the red moon into your face q
think see the bOunteOus light =
Touch its fair lines with tender grace
leven dare believe see y
look Of yearning love for me,
Darling darling.
How long ago was 1t you went
And left me waiting here alone
The backward gOod-by look you sent,
Lies in my heart and makes moan,
Recalling how your red lips bore
After my kisses, sad and sore,
Darling-my dazzling.
can not count, they seem so long.
If weeks or months have passed since then;
But in my soul wistful song
Sings low and calls you back again
Sings all the night and all the day,
Softly, as unseen angels pray,
Darling-my darling.
