Lyrics:
Last night I dreamed of my Halley
Of my Halley, my sweet Halley
Last night I dreamed of my Halley
For the thought of her is one that never dies
She's sleeping now in the valley
In the valley, my sweet Halley
She's sleeping now in the valley
And the Mockingbird is singing where she lies
Listen to the Mockingbird, listen to the Mockingbird
Oh the Mockingbird is singing oe'er her grave
Listen to the Mockingbird, listen to the Mockingbird
Still singing where the yellow roses grow
How well do I yet remember
I remember, I remember
How well do I yet remember
For the thought of her is one that never dies
It was in that sweet September
In September, I remember
It was in that sweet September
That the Mockingbird was singing far and wide
Listen to the Mockingbird, listen to the Mockingbird
Oh the Mocking bird still singing oe'er her grave
Listen to the Mockingbird, listen to the Mockingbird
Oh the Mockingbird still singing in the spring
Septimus Winner published under the name Alice Hawthorne and credited Milburn for the the melody, but subsequent publications omitted Milburn's name.
