Come On Love
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
When I was young I longed for love
And held his glory far above
All other earthly things, I cried
Come on love, dear love, with me abide
Come on love, oh, dear love, with me abide
Come on love, oh, dear love, with me abide
And with my subtlest art I wooed
And eagerly the wight pursued
But love was coy and love was shy
He laughed at me and passed me by
Come on love, oh, dear love, with me abide
Come on love, oh, dear love, with me abide
Well, I grew old and I grew gray
When wealth came wending down my way
I took his golden hand with glee
And comrades from that day were we
Then love came back with doleful face
And prayed that I would give him place
But, though his eyes with tears were dim
I turned my back and laughed at him
Come on love, oh, dear love, with me abide
Come on love, oh, dear love, with me abide
