Youth And June.

Topics: classic

I was your lover long ago, sweet June, Ere life grew hard; I am your lover still, And follow gladly to the wondrous tune You pipe on golden reeds to vale and hill. I am your lover still - to me you seem To hold the fragrance of the joys long dead - The brightness and the beauty of the dream We dreamed in youth - to hold the tears we shed, The laughter of our lips - the faith that lies Back in that season dear to every heart, Life's springtime, when God's earth and God's blue skies Are, measured by our glance, not far apart.
