A sweet, a tender ache,
Awakens as the evening falls,
A sweet, a tender ache,
Awakens as the evening falls.
Your memories return to me,
To make me weep as twilight calls,
A sweet, a tender ache,
Awakens as the evening falls,
A sweet, a tender ache,
Awakens as the evening falls.
Your tresses on your shoulders rest,
Your face held gently in my hands,
Your tresses on your shoulders rest,
Your face held gently in my hands.
I too have seen so many,
Visions of joy in these lands,
I too have seen so many,
Visions of joy in these lands.
Your memories return to me,
To make me weep as twilight calls,
A sweet, a tender ache,
Awakens as the evening falls,
A sweet, a tender ache,
Awakens as the evening falls.
Promising each passing day,
If you continue thus to grieve,
Promising each passing day,
If you continue thus to grieve,
One day, in such a manner,
We too will madness receive,
One day, in such a manner,
We too will madness receive.
Your memories return to me,
To make me weep as twilight calls,
A sweet, a tender ache,
Awakens as the evening falls,
A sweet, a tender ache,
Awakens as the evening falls.
In the day's bright, guiding light,
I can appease, pacify with care,
In the day's bright, guiding light,
I can appease, pacify with care,
But my heart, a frantic bird,
Refuses comfort anywhere,
But my heart, a frantic bird,
Refuses comfort anywhere.
Your memories return to me,
To make me weep as twilight calls,
A sweet, a tender ache,
Awakens as the evening falls,
A sweet, a tender ache,
Awakens as the evening falls.
