Here Lies Love - 1932 - from 'The Big Broadcast'

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK - 04 Oct 2001

Night winds cold and melancholy,
wail a blue finale for my tragedy,
Like a miserere meant only for me.
While I linger weary, 'neath a willow tree.
Right here our romance was started,
here again we parted,
when I set you free.
All my thoughts are jumbled,
ev'rything is blurred,
all the world has crumbled,
shatter'd by a word.

The end has come, my heart is numb,
'twas like a bolt from the blue above,
I can't believe it, but you are gone,
Darling, and here lies love.
The sky is dark, I hear a lark,
he sounds as sad as a mournful dove,
the dew appears like the tears of dawn,
darling, for here lies love.
All my dreams lost beyond recall,
dreams of Spring, blasted in the Fall,
you gave lips, you gave arms,
I gave all!
I ought to cry, my eyes are dry,
there's only one thing I'm conscious of,
I only know that I can't go on,
Darling, for here lies love.

there's only one thing I'm conscious of,
I only know that I can't go on,
Darling, for here lies love.
