In the year that’s come and gone

Lyrics

In the year that's come and gone, love, his flying feather Stooping slowly, gave us heart, and bade us walk together In the year that's coming on, though many a troth be broken We at least will not forget aught that love hath spoken In the year that's come and gone, dear, we wove a tether All of gracious words and thoughts, binding two together In the year that's coming on with its wealth of roses We shall weave it stronger yet, ere the circle closes In the year that's come and gone, in the golden weather Sweet, my sweet we swore to keep the watch of life together In the year that's coming on, rich in joy and sorrow We shall light our lamp and wait life's mysterious morrow
