And wishin' that you wasn't there, and

And suddenly he up and laughed as loud
as he could roar
And said that he was jist in fun ana
loved you more and more,
Oh, wasn't them the gladdest times OF
all you ever knew,
AnS wasn't them the kindest smiles he
ever had for you?
Say. when you got to counting Her so
fair and sweet and good
l wonder if she ever looked as angry as
she could.
AnS when you went to take her hand
she'd draw it right away.
And Iookin uppish turn her back with
aot word to say,
AaS when at last you'd jist about made
up your mind to run
Shed suddenly commence to laugh and
say she'd been in fun?
Oh, If you've ever been through that
how glad she made you when
She let you grab her in your arms and
hold her there agen.

when these here clouds that's dark
Hang all around and nothin that you do
