lula is gone - stephen foster lyrics
with a heart forsaken i wander
in silence, in grief and alone
on a form departed i ponder
for lula, sweet lula is gone
gone when the roses have faded
gone when the meadows are bare
to a land by orange blossoms shaded
where summer ever lingers on the air
lula, lula, lula is gone;
with summer birds her bright smiles
to sunny lands have flown
when day breaketh gladly
my heart waketh sadly
for lula, lula is gone
not a voice awakens the mountains
no gladness returns with the dawn
not a smile is mirrored in the fountains
for lula, sweet lula is gone
day is bereft of its pleasures
night of its beautiful dreams
while the dirge of well remembered measure
is murmured by the ripple on the streams
lula, lula, lula is gone;
with summer birds her bright smiles
to sunny lands have flown
when day breaketh gladly
my heart waketh sadly
for lula, lula is gone
when i view the chill blighted bowers
and roam o’er the snow covered plain
how i long for spring’s budding flowers
to welcome her sweet smiles again
why does the earth seem forsaken?
time will this sadness remove;
at her voice the meadows will awaken
to verdure, sweet melody and love
lula, lula, lula is gone;
with summer birds her bright smiles
to sunny lands have flown
when day breaketh gladly
my heart waketh sadly
for lula, lula is gone
