IF YOU WERE HERE.
If you were here, or I were there, Then would I find the season f.»ir, How blissfully the day would rise. How blue would be the summer skies ; And nil the world a smile would wear. What pleasant things we two would share, By what green paths we two would faro. How sweet would bo oach day'« inrprise If you were here ! But now my joy is otherwhereEach day's burden that I bear— And Pleasure mocks at me and flic«, And Pain stand* by sido and sighs And yet I know skies would be fair If you were here !
