  *++Lyrics:|\\
Only to see thee, darling,\\
Only to hear your voice;\\
Even its faintest whisper,\\
Would make my heart rejoice.\\
Vainly I crave the sunshine\\
Thy love would e're impart;\\
Hoping again to hear thee,\\
Speak from thy loving heart.\\
\\
//chorus: //\\
Only to see thee darling,\\
Only to hear your voice;\\
Even its faintest whisper,\\
Would make my heart rejoice,\\
Only to see thee darling,\\
Only to hear your voice;\\
Even its faintest whisper,\\
Would make my heart rejoice!\\
\\
Gone is the sunlit future,\\
Vision of joy too bright;\\
Now ev'ry gleam hath faded,\\
Vanish'd in darkest night.\\
Too late, alas! I knew thee,\\
Ah! could my poor heart tell,\\
Breathe out its bitter anguish\\
In that last word, farewell!\\
\\
