Hartfort [00:03.26] [00:13.86]The years creep slowly by Lorena [00:19.34] [00:20.07]The snow is on the grass again [00:24.90] [00:26.23]The sun's low down the sky Lorena [00:31.84] [00:32.60]The frost gleams where the flowers have been [00:37.02] [00:39.14]But the heart beats on as warmly now [00:43.79] [00:45.23]As when the summer days were nigh [00:49.95] [00:51.47]The sun can never dip so low [00:56.35] [00:57.74]Or down in affections cloudless sky [01:02.10] [01:54.70]A hundred months have passed Lorena [02:00.26] [02:00.91]Since last I held that hand in mine [02:05.85] [02:07.19]And felt the pulse beat fast Lorena [02:12.76] [02:13.52]Though mine beat faster far than thine [02:18.36] [02:19.91]A hundred months 'twas flowery May [02:25.21] [02:26.32]When up the hilly slope we climbed [02:31.09] [02:32.45]To watch the dying of the day [02:37.56] [02:38.74]And hear the distant church bells chime [02:43.16] [03:35.35]We loved each other then Lorena [03:40.70] [03:41.55]Far more than we ever dared to tell [03:45.84] [03:47.88]And what we might have been Lorena [03:53.51] [03:54.68]Had our loving prospered well [03:58.50] [04:00.80]But then 'tis past the years are gone [04:05.56] [04:06.99]I'll not call up their shadowy form [04:11.36] [04:13.34]I'll say to them lost years sleep on [04:18.28] [04:19.80]Sleep on [04:20.62] [04:21.65]Heed life's pelting storms
