Lyrics
If you could sit with me beside the sea to–day And whisper with me sweetest dreamings o’er and o’er; I think I should not find the clouds so dim and gray And not so loud the waves complaining at the shore If you could sit with me upon the shore to–day And hold my hand in yours as in the days of old I think I should not mind the chill baptismal spray Nor find my hand and heart and all the world so cold If you could walk with me upon the strand to–day And tell me that my longing love had won your own I think all my sad thoughts would then be put away And I could give back laughter for the Ocean’s moan!
