When the summer sun declineth
T'ward the glowing western sea,
When the star of evening shineth,
Then my thoughts are thine, Marie;
For at such an hour I've wandered
On the pebbly shore with thee,
And o'er many a bright dream pondered,
By thy side, my own Marie.
T'ward the glowing western sea,
When the star of evening shineth,
Then my thoughts are thine, Marie;
For at such an hour I've wandered
On the pebbly shore with thee,
And o'er many a bright dream pondered,
By thy side, my own Marie.
When the autumn wind is stealing
The green garb from each tree,
Then my heart throbs with a feeling
Which is thine, all thine, Marie;
For 'twas autumn when thy gladness
Filled my quiet home with glee,
And memory's pleasant sadness
Brings thine image back, Marie.
The green garb from each tree,
Then my heart throbs with a feeling
Which is thine, all thine, Marie;
For 'twas autumn when thy gladness
Filled my quiet home with glee,
And memory's pleasant sadness
Brings thine image back, Marie.
