When Love Dies. 1922.

Seq - Dr. J.Pitt-Payne. Kar - Bunty Pritchard Jones. Aug 2000.

"Love is the flow'r of the hour" so poets say,
Blooming awhile alas! to fade and die:

Cupid too oft will love and ride away,
a tear or a smile and then a long "Goodbye".

One heart is glad, one heart may feel regret
One will remember, and one will forget;

Love's one day Rosemary the next day Rue,
When true love dies, somebody's heart dies too.

When love dies ev'ry joy departs,
nothing they say can bring back the sunshine,
to breaking hearts.

When hope flies then bitter tears are shed;
Life ever seems just empty dreams,
when love is dead.

When love dies ev'ry joy departs,
nothing they say can bring back the sunshine,
to breaking hearts.

When hope flies then bitter tears are shed;
Life ever seems just empty dreams,
when love is dead.

Love, like the lilt of a song, brings joy awhile,
One ling'ring chord, and then the song is done:

Eyes, seeking love, in other eyes may smile,
then one jesting word, and Love perchance is gone.

One fond embrace, one kiss before we part.
Fingers entwined, dear, and heart close to heart;

whisper again to me before you go,
that you are mine, sweetheart, because I know..

When love dies ev'ry joy departs,
nothing they say can bring back the sunshine,
to breaking hearts.

When hope flies then bitter tears are shed;
Life ever seems just empty dreams,
when love is dead.

When love dies ev'ry joy departs,
nothing they say can bring back the sunshine,
to breaking hearts.

When hope flies then bitter tears are shed;
Life ever seems just empty dreams,
when love is dead.
