Good Night My Love

Good night, my love!
Adown the hills are shadows creeping
And heavy clouds are with me weeping.
While winds are sighing
That summer's dying,
And I, in loneliness so sad to-night
Look out into the fading light
To say, "Good night, my love!"

Good night, my love!
The memory of the summer past.
Its love, its joys will ever last
Though with the fading leaves.
My heart now grieves,
Hope's light within will brightly burn,
I know a spring-time happy will return.
Till then, Good night, my love!

Good night, my love!
Tho' it is long to wait through wintry weather
For that bright spring when we're together,
The storms all past
That now our sky overcast,
Shall each the other's heart make glad
As spring the barren fields in verdure clad,
Yet I can wait. Good night, my love!

Good night, my love!
One whisper more I send to thee
With whom my thoughts will ever be;
There shines afar
A beaming star.
That lights anew my hopes of love.
It seems a promise from above!
Good night, my love!
