2nd South Carolina String Band - Lorena lyrics

Artist: 2nd South Carolina String Band

album: Hard Road


The years creep slowly by, Lorena
The snow is on the grass again
The sun's low down the sky, Lorena
The frost gleams where the flowers have been
But the heart throbs on as warmly now
As when the summer days were nigh
Oh, the sun can never dip so low
A-down affection's cloudless sky
Oh, the sun can never dip so low
A-down affection's cloudless sky
We loved each other then, Lorena
More than we ever dared to tell
And what we might have been, Lorena
Had but our lovings prospered well
But then, 'tis past, the years have gone
And I'll not call up their shadowy forms
I'll say to them "Lost years, sleep on!
Sleep on! nor heed life's pelting storm"
I'll say to them "Lost years, sleep on!
Sleep on! nor heed life's pelting storm"

It matters little now, Lorena
The past is in the eternal past
Our heads will soon lie low, Lorena
Life's tide is ebbing out so fast
There is a Future! O, thank God!
Of life this is so small a part!
'Tis dust to dust beneath the sod
But there, up there, 'tis heart to heart
'Tis dust to dust beneath the sod
But there, up there, 'tis heart to heart
