Lyrics:

In the gloaming
O my darling
When the lights are soft and low
And the quiet
Shadows falling
Softly come and softly go
When the trees are
Sobbing faintly
With a gentle, unknown woe

Will you think of me
And love me
As you did once long ago?

In the gloaming
O my darling
Think not bitterly of me
Though I passed away in silence
Left you lonely
Set you free
For my heart was
Tossed with longing
What had been
Could never be
It was best to
Leave you thus, dear
Best for you and
Best for me
In the gloaming
O my darling
When the lights are soft and low
Will you think of me
And love me
As you did once long ago?
