We were Boys and Girls Together.We were boys and girls togetherIn that happy time,When the spirit’s light shone brightestAnd the heart was in its prime;Ere the morning light was clouded,That beam’d upon our youth,And chill of worldly knowledgeHad blighted childhood’s truth.We were boys and girls together,When the step was firm and light,When the voice was clear and ringing,And the laughing eyes were bright;Then our love sought no concealment,And our bosoms knew no art,And the sunshine of our childhoodCast no shadow on the heart.

We were boys and girls together
In that happy time,
When the spirit’s light shone brightest
And the heart was in its prime;
Ere the morning light was clouded,
That beam’d upon our youth,
And chill of worldly knowledge
Had blighted childhood’s truth.
We were boys and girls together,When the step was firm and light,When the voice was clear and ringing,And the laughing eyes were bright;Then our love sought no concealment,And our bosoms knew no art,And the sunshine of our childhoodCast no shadow on the heart.
We were boys and girls together,
When the step was firm and light,
When the voice was clear and ringing,
And the laughing eyes were bright;
Then our love sought no concealment,
And our bosoms knew no art,
And the sunshine of our childhood
Cast no shadow on the heart.
