No. 18 - Song - Ruth - "I love you dear, and only you."
| Ruth: | The shades of night are gently falling. My thoughts take wing and fly across the sea. I hear a voice. To me 'tis calling. It breathes a tale of love to me. My lonely heart with joy it fills. My soul with ecstasy it thrills. Why should I doubt, why should I fear, While soft and sweet these words I seem to hear? I love you, I love you. Come back and claim your own. Forever, forever, sweetheart, I'm yours alone. For you, love, I'm waiting, My heart shall e'er be true Forever and aye. I love you, dear, and only you. |
| Why need I care if ills betide me? His heart is mine. I know 'tis true as steel. Though we're apart, he's still beside me. No tongue can tell the love I feel. God bless the lad that I adore. His heart is mine for evermore. I know he's mine, and will be mine alway, For sweet and low I seem to hear him say: I love you, I love you. Come back and claim your own. Forever, forever, sweetheart, I'm yours alone. For you, love, I'm waiting, My heart shall e'er be true Forever and aye. I love you, dear, and only you. |
