When You're Away

When you’re away dear,
How weary the lonesome hours,
Sunshine seems gray dear,
The fragrance has left the flowers . . .

Ever I hear you in seeming
Whispering soft love words to me
Ah if I knew it were but dreaming
N’er to be . . .

Then, when you’re near me
There’s n’yot that I strive to do
Save to endear me
More fondly my love to you . . .

Never again let us part dear,
I’d die without you my own,
Hold me again to your heart,
I love you alone . . .

( never again let us part dear,
I’d die without you my own . . . )

. . . hold me again to your heart,
I love you alone . . .

Love you my own . . .
Love you alone!
