Sunrise And You 1918

Far in the East
there's a soft, crimson glow,
the new day blushes
at its dawning;
Soft sing the birds
in a ceaseless flow
Their welcome to the new born morning.
Dull grey shadows,
then a flaming sky,
such was the picture
when we said goodbye!
Sunrise and you
and the soft morning dew,
Like the tears on your cheek
when we parted.
My fond heart awakes
when the glorious day breaks
for the sunrise reminds me of you!
Out from the depths
of a starless night
comes radiant morn,
to find me longing;
Gone are the shadows,
my heart is light,
and in my breast
new hopes are thronging.
Cold grey dawn
will soon have passed,
and then skies will be smiling
when we meet again!
Sunrise and you
and the soft morning dew,
Like the tears on your cheek
when we parted.
My fond heart awakes
when the glorious day breaks
for the sunrise reminds me of you!
