| Long time ago | A |
| Where the rock threw back the billow | A |

| Long time ago | A |

| Rock and tree and flowing water | C |
| Long time ago | A |
| Bee and bird and blossom taught her | C |

| Murmuring low | A |
| Tenderly her dove eyes glistened | D |
| Long time ago | A |

| Mingled were our hearts for ever | C |
| Long time ago | A |
| Can I now forget her Never | C |
| No lost one no | A |

| She's the star I missed from heaven | E |
| Long time ago | A |
