| Along the dark and haunted way | B |
| I knew your hidden face was bright | A |

| I never sought to take your hand | G |
| For all the way was long and rough | H |
| I taught my soul to understand | G |
| That love was strength enough | H |

| Then suddenly the ghosts drew near | I |
| A ghastly gliding tomb white band | G |
| I called aloud for you to hear | J |
| My hand besought your hand | G |

| - | |
| No voice no touch the thin ghosts glide | K |
| Where in my dream I dreamed you were | L |
| Night night you are not by my side | K |
| You never have been there | M |
