[00:00.000] 作曲 : H.D.L. Webster/J. Philbrick/1857
[00:11.873] The years creep slowly by, Lorena,
[00:17.989] The snow is on the grass again.
[00:23.690] The sun′s low down the sky, Lorena,
[00:29.337] The frost gleams where the flowers have been.
[00:34.976] But the heart throbs on as warmly now,
[00:40.575] As when the summer days were nigh.
[00:45.936] Oh, the sun can never dip so low
[00:52.012] A-down affection's cloudless sky.
[00:57.710] Oh, the sun can never dip so low
[01:03.446] A-down affection′s cloudless sky.
[01:09.032] We loved each other then, Lorena,
[01:14.588] More than we ever dared to tell;
[01:20.103] And what we might have been, Lorena,
[01:25.773] Had but our loving prospered well
[01:31.568] But then, 'tis past, the years are gone,
[01:36.808] I'll not call up their shadowy forms;
[01:42.701] I′ll say to them, "Lost years, sleep on!
[01:48.495] Sleep on! nor heed life′s pelting storms."
[01:54.195] I'll say to them, "Lost years, sleep on!
[01:59.696] Sleep on! nor heed life′s pelting storms."
[02:50.227] It matters little now, Lorena,
[02:55.770] The past is in the eternal past;
[03:01.421] Our heads will soon lie low, Lorena,
[03:07.080] Life's tide is ebbing out so fast.
[03:12.552] There is a Future! O, thank God!
[03:18.202] Of life this is so small a part!
[03:23.515] ′Tis dust to dust beneath the sod;
[03:29.488] But there, up there, 'tis heart to heart.
[03:35.086] ′Tis dust to dust beneath the sod;
[03:40.679] But there, up there, 'tis heart to heart.
