Through The Long Days.

Topics: classic

Through the long days and years         What will my loved one be,             Parted from me?     Through the long days and years.     Always as then she was,         Loveliest, brightest, best,             Blessing and blest, -     Always as then she was.     Never on earth again         Shall I before her stand,             Touch lip or hand, -     Never on earth again.     But while my darling lives         Peaceful I journey on,             Not quite alone,     Not while my darling lives.
