Sarah Brightman - Oft in the stilly night lyrics

rate me

Oft in the stilly night

Ere slumber's chain has bound me,

Fond Mem'ry brings the light

Of other days around me:

The smiles, the tears of boyhood's years,

The words of love then spoken;

The eyes that shone,

Now dimm'd and gone,

The cheerful hearts now broken!

Thus in the stilly night

Ere slumber's chain has bound me,

Sad Mem'ry brings the light

Of other days around me.

When I remember all

The friends, so link'd together,

I've seen around me fall

Like leaves in wintry weather,

I feel like one

Who treads alone

Some banquet-hall deserted,

Whose lights are fled,

Whose garlands dead,

And all but he departed!

Thus in the stilly night

Ere slumber's chain has bound me,

Sad Mem'ry brings the light

Of other days around me.
