It Were Not So



The days grew cold, and life grew drear;
It were not so when you were near.

My feet grow numb, ‘tis hard to stand;
It were not so I held your hand.

Night settles down, I cannot see;
It were not so when you loved me.

Return, O love, this cloud destroy;
And bring me life and light and joy!
