Down where we roamed together,
Darling, you and I,
Sweet was the Summer weather,
Bright the glowing sky;
There I told you love's fond story
'Neath the stars so fair;
Oh, the hours of sunny gladness
Once we used to share.
Chorus.
Down where we roamed together,
Where the soft winds sigh,
Sunshine and fairest weather,
Wait for you and I.
Down where we roamed together,
Oh, what mem'ries dear
Come now of blooming heather
By the brook so clear;
There our heart-felt love was plighted,
There your winning smile
Cheer'd my heart, and I delighted
Clasped your hand the while.-Chorus.
Down where we roamed together,
There the sweet birds sing,
Oft in the bright June weather
Joy to me they bring;
Still the love of old I cherish
Of that Summer night;
Sweet the mem'ry ne'er to perish
In my fond delight.-Chorus. .
