One more verse:

3. Though by your kindness my fond hopes were raised,
Long, long ago, long, long ago;
You, by more eloquent lips have been praised,
Long, long ago, long ago.

But by long absence your truth has been tried,
Still to your accents I listen with pride;
Blest as I was when I sat by your side
Long, long ago, long ago.

^^ Dick and Susan have added a couple of harvesters - I'm one of them. Before I started a year ago, Dick and Susan were doing it all by themselves. It's a big job to figure out how to go through the forum systematically and harvest what got missed - but we're working on it. I've got lots of songs on my hard drive, and lots more sent in to Dick & Susan.
Since the songs are in the Forum and the Forum is searchable, it might not be a horrible thing that songs sit unharvested for a while, and remain open for comments and additions. It IS important, I think, that the tunes and lyrics are accurate and well-researched by the time they're included in the database. Once they're in the database, it gets a little harder to change them.
