Tell me the tales that to me were so dear
Long, long ago, long, long ago
Sing me the songs I delighted to hear
Long, long ago, long ago
Now you are come all my fears are removed
Let me forget for how long you have grown
Let me believe that you love as you loved
Do you remember the past where we met
Ah yes, you told me you'd never forget
Then, to all others, my smile you preferred
Love, when you spoke, gave a charm to each word
Still my heart treasures the praises I heard
