Theater, Music-Hall, Nostalgic, Irish & Historic Old Songs, Volume 23
Call Me "Darling" Once Again.
Copyright, 1878, by J. L. Peters.
Words by Geo. Cooper. Music by Chas. E. Pratt.
Call me "darling " once again
Let the past be all forgot;
Smile like sunlight after rain,
Dearest one, oh, chide me not.
Sad my heart is while you frown,
Sweet to me your loving smile;
Hope and joy my moments crown,
Dreaming of you all the while.
Chorus.
Call me "darling " once again.
Let the past be all forgot;
Smile like sunlight after rain,
Dearest one, oh, chide me not.
Call me "darling " once again,
Ev'ry angry word forgive;
While you frown in weary pain
Evermore my heart must live.
Think of joys that we have known-
Turn me not in pride away;
Whisper I am still "your own,"
Dear as in life's happier day.-Chorus.
Call me "darling "once again,
Bid my heart no more repine;
Dreary must my life remain,
Till your sweet eyes look in mine.
Clearer beam the skies above,
When the angry storm is past;
Dearer, fonder be our love,
For the clouds that do not last.-Chorus.
