“ANY LITTLE OLD SONG”
Any little old song
Will do for me,
Tell it of joys gone long,
Or joys to be,
Or friendly faces best
Loved to see.
Will do for me,
Tell it of joys gone long,
Or joys to be,
Or friendly faces best
Loved to see.
Newest themes I want not
On subtle strings,
And for thrillings pant not
That new song brings:
I only need the homeliest
Of heartstirrings.
On subtle strings,
And for thrillings pant not
That new song brings:
I only need the homeliest
Of heartstirrings.
