Tell me the tales that to me were so dear And sing me the songs I delighted to hear Now you are come all my grieve is removed Let me forget that so long you have roved Let me believe that you love as you loved And now do you remember the path where we met Yeah you told me you never would forget Then to all others my smile you preferred Love when you spoke gave a charm to each word Still my heart treasures the praises I heard Though by your kindness my fond hopes were raised I know you've by more eloquent lips have been praised But by long absence your truth has been tried Still to your accents I listened with pride Blessed as I was when I set by your side Long, long ago Long ago
