the voices that are gone - stephen foster lyrics
(verse 1)
when the twilight shades fall o’er me
and the evening star appears
memory brings the past before me
joys and sorrows, smiles and tears
then again bright eyes are gleaming
with the love once in them shone
then like music heard when dreaming
come the voices that are gone
(chorus)
once again bright eyes are gleaming
with the love once in them shone
then like music heard when dreaming
come the voices that are gone
(verse 2)
sweet as wood dove’s note when calling
to her mate as night draws on
soft as snowflake lightly falling
come the voices that are gone
softly at the hour of prayer
or loud ringing through the wildwood
when the young heart knew no care
(chorus)
once again bright eyes are gleaming
with the love once in them shone
then like music heard when dreaming
come the voices that are gone
(verse 3)
so when life’s bright sun is setting
and its day is well nigh done
may there be no vain regretting
over memories i would shun
but when death is o’er to meet me
may some much-lov’d forms come on
and the first sounds that shall greet me
be the voices that were gone
(chorus)
once again bright eyes are gleaming
with the love once in them shone
then like music heard when dreaming
come the voices that are gone
