[Looking back along life's trodden way]
Looking back along life's trodden way
Gleams and greenness linger on the track;
Distance melts and mellows all today,
Looking back.
Gleams and greenness linger on the track;
Distance melts and mellows all today,
Looking back.
Rose and purple and a silvery grey,
Is that cloud the cloud we called so black?
Evening harmonizes all today,
Looking back.
Is that cloud the cloud we called so black?
Evening harmonizes all today,
Looking back.
Foolish feet so prone to halt or stray,
Foolish heart so restive on the rack!
Yesterday we sighed, but not today
Looking back.
Foolish heart so restive on the rack!
Yesterday we sighed, but not today
Looking back.
