Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDAEEFA AGGAHHAIJFA

LONG ago long agoA
When the hawthorn buds were pearlyB
And the birds sang late and earlyB
All the songs that lovers knowA
How we lingered in the laneC
Kissed and parted kissed againD
Parted laggard foot and slowA
What a pretty world we knewE
Dressed in moonlight dreams and dewE
Long ago my first sweet sweetheartF
Long agoA
-
Long ago long agoA
When the wind was on the riverG
Where the lights and shadows shiverG
And the streets were all aglowA
In the gaudy gas lit streetH
We two parted sweet my sweetH
And the crowd went to and froA
And your veil was wet with tearsI
For the inevitable yearsJ
Long ago my last sweet sweetheartF
Long agoA
