To-night I?m alone, in the place I call home wileing the hours away Weaving a dream, of a beautiful scene, and a girl on her wedding day She fell in love with the best friend I had, the thought nearly drives me insane I hope she will be happy, as long as she lives, for I?ll still love her just the same. I stood in the church, the day she was wed, my heart nearly broke with pain And as the organ played ?O Promise Me? from tears I could hardly refrain As they passed me by-I caught her eye, but quickly she turned away Tho she is his, I want her to know she?ll bemine to my dieting day. July 1955 WHEN THE LEAVES COME TUMBl(E)NG DOWN REFRAIN When the leaves come tumbling down Yellow, green, red and brown That?s a sign that winters? near When the leaves come tumbling down There?s no use to worry dear Just as long as I am here Let the north wind blow, let it rain and snow Let the leaves come tumbling down We?ll sit by the fire, we?ll plan and plan a wedding grand Honey don?t you frown, say you?ll look lovely in a wedding gown Summer time will come again There?ll be no more snow or rain Let the north wind blow, let it rain and snow Let leaves come tumbling down. A BIT OF PHILOSOPHY If you wake up in the morning and you?re feeling sort of blue
Backman, Marguerite Songs-13
