SONG

JOY came in Youth as a humming bird,(Sing hey! for the honey and bloom of life!)And it made a home in my summer bowerWith the honeysuckle and the sweet-pea flower.(Sing hey! for the blossoms and sweets of life!)Joy came as a lark when the years had gone,(Ah! hush, hush still, for the dream is short!)And I gazed far up to the melting blueWhere the rare song dropped like a golden dew.(Ah! sweet is the song tho' the dream be short!)

JOY came in Youth as a humming bird,

(Sing hey! for the honey and bloom of life!)

And it made a home in my summer bower

With the honeysuckle and the sweet-pea flower.

(Sing hey! for the blossoms and sweets of life!)

Joy came as a lark when the years had gone,(Ah! hush, hush still, for the dream is short!)And I gazed far up to the melting blueWhere the rare song dropped like a golden dew.(Ah! sweet is the song tho' the dream be short!)

Joy came as a lark when the years had gone,

(Ah! hush, hush still, for the dream is short!)

And I gazed far up to the melting blue

Where the rare song dropped like a golden dew.

(Ah! sweet is the song tho' the dream be short!)
