Love's Old Sweet Song

Fifth Grade Song  I learned Circa 1956-57 

Once in the dear dead days beyond recall,
When on the world the mists began to fall,
Out of our dreams that rose in happy throng,
Low to our hearts love sang an old sweet song.
And in the dusk while fell the firelight's gleam,
Softly it wove itself into our dreams.
Just a song at twilight,
When the lights are low.
And the flickering shadows,
Softly come and go.
Though the heart be weary, sad the day and long
Still to us at twilight comes love's old song,
Comes love's old sweet song.
