Love looked back as he took his flightA
And lo his eyes were filled with tearsB
Was it for love of lost delightA
Love looked back as he took his flightA
Only I know while day grew nightA
Turning still to the vanished yearsC
Love looked back as he took his flightA
And lo his eyes were filled with tearsB

Beyond the dim HesperidesE
The girl who sang them long agoI
Could never dream that over seasE
Beyond the dim HesperidesE
The wind would blow such songs as theseE
I wonder now if she can knowI
Beyond the dim HesperidesE
The girl who sang them long agoI

Dead leaves upon the streamJ
And dead leaves on the airK
All of my lost hopes seemJ
Dead leaves upon the streamJ
I watch them in a dreamJ
Going I know not whereK
Dead leaves upon the streamJ
And dead leaves on the airK
