the years creep slowly by Lorena

The snow is on the grass again

The sun's low down the sky Lorena

The frost gleams where the flowers have been

But my heart beats on as warmly (Bm) now

As when the summer days were nigh

The sun can never dip so low

Or down affections cloudless sky

A hundred months have passed Lorena

Since last i held that hand in mine

And felt the pulse beat fast Lorena

Though mine beat faster far than thine

A hundred months 'twas flowery may

When up the hilly slope we climbed

To watch the dying of the day

And hear the distant church bells chime

We loved each other then Lorena

More than we ever dared to tell

And what we might have been Lorena

Had but our lovings prospered well

But then 'tis past the years are gone

I'll not call up their shadowy forms

I'll say to them lost years sleep on

Sleep on Nor heed life's pelting storms
