American Old Time Song Lyrics: 02 Evening Star
Theater, Music-Hall, Nostalgic, Irish & Historic Old Songs, Volume 2
EVENING STAR
Beautiful star in heaven so bright,
Softly falls thy silver light,
As thou movest from earth afar,
Star of the evening-beautiful star.
Beautiful star, beautiful star,
Star of the evening,
Beautiful, beautiful star.
In fancy's eye thou seem'st to say
Follow me, come from earth away:
Upward thy spirit's pinions try,
To realms of love beyond the sky.
Beautiful star, beautiful star,
Star of the evening,
Beautiful, beautiful star.
Shine on, O star of love divine,
And may our souls around thee twine,
As thou movest from earth afar,
Star of the twilight-beautiful star.
Beautiful star, beautiful star,
Star of the evening.
Beautiful, beautiful star.
