Here Lies Love

Night winds, cold and melancholy, 
Wave a blue finale 
For my tragedy. 
Life's a misery, 
Meant only for me, 
While I linger, weary, '
Neath a willow tree. 
Right here our romance was started, 
Here again we parted 
When I set you free. 
All my thoughts are jumbled, 
Everything is blurred, 
All the world has crumbled, 
Shattered by word. 
The end has come, 
My heart is numb, '
Twas like a bolt from the blue above. 
I can't believe it but you're gone, darling, 
And here lies love. 
The sky is dark 
And I hear a lark, 
He sounds as sad as a mournful dove. 
The dew appears like the tears of dawn, darling, 
And here lies love. 
All my dreams lost beyond recall, 
Dreams of 
Spring blasted by the 
Fall, You gave lips, you gave arms, 
I gave all! 
I ought to cry, 
My eyes are dry, 
There's only one thing 
I'm conscious of 
I only know that 
I can't go on, darling, 
For here lies love. 
All my dreams lost beyond recall, 
Dreams of 
Spring blasted in the 
Fall, You gave lips, you gave arms, 
I gave all! 
I ought to cry, 
My eyes are dry, 
There's only one thing 
I'm conscious of 
I only know that 
I can't go on, darling, 
For here lies love.
