The Sweetheart Of Sigma Chi 1912

When the world goes wrong
as it's bound to do,
and you've broken
Dan Cupid's bow,
and you long for the girl
you used to love,
the maid of the long ago.
Why light your pipe
bid sorrow avaunt,
blow the smoke
from your altar of dreams,
and wreathe the face
of your dreamgirl there,
the love that is
just what it seems.

The girl of my dreams
is the sweetest girl
of all the girls I know.
Each sweet CoEd
like a rainbow trail,
fades in the after glow.
The blue of her eyes
and the gold of her hair,
are a blend of the western sky,
and the moonlight beams
on the girl of my dreams
she the sweetheart of Sigma Chi.

The girl of my dreams
is the sweetest girl
of all the girls I know.
Each sweet CoEd
like a rainbow trail,
fades in the after glow.
The blue of her eyes
and the gold of her hair,
are a blend of the western sky,
and the moonlight beams
on the girl of my dreams
she the sweetheart of Sigma Chi.

Ev'ry magic breeze
wafts a kiss to you,
from the lips of your "Sweet Sixteen"
and one by one the maids you knew
bow to your Meerschaum Queen.
As years drift by
on the tides of time,
and they all have forgotten but you,
then the girl of your dreams
the sweeter seems.
She's the girl who is always true.

The girl of my dreams
is the sweetest girl
of all the girls I know.
Each sweet CoEd
like a rainbow trail,
fades in the after glow.
The blue of her eyes
and the gold of her hair,
are a blend of the western sky,
and the moonlight beams
on the girl of my dreams
she the sweetheart of Sigma Chi.

The girl of my dreams
is the sweetest girl
of all the girls I know.
Each sweet CoEd
like a rainbow trail,
fades in the after glow.
The blue of her eyes
and the gold of her hair,
are a blend of the western sky,
and the moonlight beams
on the girl of my dreams
she the sweetheart of Sigma Chi.
