The light died out and left the sky,
We sighed and rose and said good-bye,
We had forgotten — He and I,
That he was dead, that I must die.


Lyrics (1891 edition)


The light died out and left the sky, We sighed and rose and said good-bye, We had forgotten — He and I, That he was dead, that I must die.

The light died out and left the sky, We sighed and rose and said good-bye, We had forgotten — He and I, That he was dead, that I must die.

The light died out and left the sky, We sighed and rose and said good-bye, We had forgotten — He and I, That he was dead, that I must die.

The light died out and left the sky, We sighed and rose and said good-bye, We had forgotten — He and I, That he was dead, that I must die.
