No One Knows 1908

When twilight shadows over earth are falling,
and golden splendor tints the far off West,
When birds unto their mates are softly calling,
and all the world seems peacefully to rest,
'tis then I miss you most,
as I sit all alone,
I hear your voice on ev'ry wind that blows.
Tho' I have loved and lost,
yet dearer you have grown,
and how I miss you, sweetheart
no one knows.

No one knows how much I miss you,
no one knows how my heart grieves,
how my lips have yearned to kiss you,
you in whom my soul believes,
no one knows how much I love you.
More and more as each day goes.
Tho' my heart may break in sorrow,
no one cares for no one knows.

They tell me you are courted by another,
that soon you are to be a stranger's bride,
I fondly dreamed that I would be the lover,
who'd share life's joy and sorrow by your side,
but since you choose to part,
there's nothing seems worth while,
'tis only pride that makes my life seem gay.
And tho' my broken heart
be covered with a smile,
I miss you more than words can ever say.

No one knows how much I miss you,
no one knows how my heart grieves,
how my lips have yearned to kiss you,
you in whom my soul believes,
no one knows how much I love you.
More and more as each day goes.
Tho' my heart may break in sorrow,
no one cares for no one knows.
