    • Lyrics : Absent Friend

    A night of spring is a lovely thing
    But I feel sad in this night of spring
    For this is the time the sloe gets bright
    And this is a most bewitching night
    And I am lonely and you are far
    And you can't hear what I sing

    I wish I knew where you are tonight
    I wish you're thinking of me tonight
    Where are you tonight?
    I wish you feel how I long for you
    And I wish you're missing me too
    And I wish I knew where to go
    Knowing you
    Knowing you

    We ought to walk where the cowslips grow
    Behind the hedge ???
    And you ought to smile and look at me
    And I ought to kiss you tenderly
    But I don't know if you ???
    This lovely evening of spring

    I wish I knew where you are tonight
    I wish you're thinking of me tonight
    Where are you tonight?

    I wish you feel how I long for you
    And I wish you're missing me too
    And I wish I knew where to go
    Knowing you
    Knowing you

    Tonight
