Accompaniment by Werner Tomaschewski:


Lyrics

  1. While the flow’rs bloom in gladness
    And spring birds rejoice
    There’s a void in our household of one gentle voice
    The form of a loved one hath passed from the light
    But the sound of her footfall returns with the night

Refrain
For I see her still in my dreams
I see her still in my dreams
Though her smiles have departed
From the meadows and the streams
I see her still in my dreams
I see her still in my dreams
Though her smiles have departed
From the meadows and the streams

  1. Though her voice once familiar
    Hath gone from the day
    And her smiles from the sunlight have faded away
    Though I wake to a scene now deserted and bleak
    In my visions I find the lost form that I seek
