1 Nights are growing very lonely,
Days are very long;
I'm agrowing weary only
Listening for your song.
Old remembrances are thronging
Through my memory.
Till it seems the world is full of dreams
Just to call you back to me.
There's a long, long trail a winding
Into the land of my dreams,
Where the nightingales are singing
And a white moon beams;
There's a long, long night of waiting
Until my dreams all come true;
Till the day when I'll be going down
That long, long trail with you.
2 All night long I hear you calling,
Calling sweet and low;
Seem to hear your foot steps falling,
Everywhere I go.
Though the road between us stretches
Many a weary mile.
I forget your not with me,
When I think I see you smile.-Ref.
