In This Quiet Hour
Language: English
In this quiet hour for twilight set apart, When treasured memories fly from heart to heart To you I love the best, the best of all I, through the silence call! And faint and far I dream you answer me, And once again your tender eyes I see. The wistful eyes, so beautiful, so true That call me back to you!
