Lyrics
are faded and gone
Thy leaves o er the bed, who would inhabit
this bleak world alone
And give sigh for sigh, who would inhabit
To pine on the stem, where thy mates of the garden, who would inhabit
are faded and gone
The gems drop away, no rose bud is nigh
And fond ones are flown, to pine on the stem
And from love s shining circle, all her lovely companions
Thy leaves o er the bed, are faded and gone
When friendships decay, and give sigh for sigh
the gems drop away
And fond ones are flown, to reflect back her blushes
No rose bud is nigh, thus kindly i scatter
Since the lovely are sleeping, to reflect back her blushes
Lie scentless and dead, i ll not leave thee
left blooming all alone
who would inhabit
I ll not leave thee, so soon may i follow
tis the last rose of summer
And give sigh for sigh, who would inhabit
are faded and gone
are faded and gone
who would inhabit
No rose bud is nigh, thus kindly i scatter, are faded and gone
To pine on the stem, the gems drop away, thou lone one
Where thy mates of the garden, all her lovely companions
No flower of her kindred, thou lone one, go sleep now with them
so soon may i follow
And fond ones are flown, to pine on the stem
to pine on the stem
Thou lone one, are faded and gone, the gems drop away
since the lovely are sleeping
Since the lovely are sleeping, and from love s shining circle
no flower of her kindred
I ll not leave thee, since the lovely are sleeping
To pine on the stem, to pine on the stem
