Where does thy beauty mourn
On close of this glorious day
As angels gently sleep
Beyond your dreams so far away
In the midst of your shattered life
How does your mem'ry fade
Falling long among your tears
As time has left you in the shade
No more does your beauty call
To dance among the roses bloom
Or revel in your suitors fame
And yield love's capture once again
Oh, why oh why, has she left you now
With lovers on the rise
Oh, why oh why, has she left you now
When your beauty has left to hide.
Dark are the nights all left alone
With love abandoned once more
Hidden among life's lonely shadow
Never a love knocks on thy door
