Margaret’s Song

Melody: Schubert Waltz, No. 2 in A Flat
“Yearning”

When aspen are turning and soft autumn breezes
Send golden leaves out on the water to play
Come with me my darling, back to the blue mountain
Where we were companions in love’s yesterday.

For you are my springtime, my summer, my autumn,
My joy in the winter in soft-falling snow.
Come lie down beside me and tell me you love me,
I’ll hold you forever and won’t let you go.

The aspen are turning, come lie down beside me
And tell me you love me as in days gone by,
And we will be springtime and summer and autumn
And snow on the mountain, we two, you and I.
