O Life dear Life in this fair house | B |
Long since did I it seems to me | C |
In some mysterious doleful way | D |
Fall out of love with thee | C |
- | |
For Life thou art become a ghost | E |
A memory of days gone by | A |
A poor forsaken thing between | F |
A heartache and a sigh | A |
- | |
And now with shadows from the hills | G |
Thronging the twilight wraith on wraith | C |
Unlock the door and let me go | H |
To thy dark rival Death | C |

O Heart dear Heart in this fair house | B |
Why hast thou wearied and grown tired | I |
Between a morning and a night | J |
Of all thy soul desired | I |
- | |
Fond one who cannot understand | K |
Even these shadows on the floor | L |
Yet must be dreaming of dark loves | M |
And joys beyond my door | L |
- | |
But I am beautiful past all | N |
The timid tumult of thy mood | O |
And thou returning not must still | P |
Be mine in solitude | O |
