[The old church tower and garden wall]
The old church tower and garden wall
Are black with Autumn rain
And dreary winds foreboding call
The darkness down again
Are black with Autumn rain
And dreary winds foreboding call
The darkness down again
I watched how evening took the place
Of glad and glorious day
I watched a deeper gloom efface
The evening's lingering ray
Of glad and glorious day
I watched a deeper gloom efface
The evening's lingering ray
And as I gazed on the cheerless sky
Sad thoughts rose in my mind
Sad thoughts rose in my mind
