I've been trying for ages to find the proper titles & full text and/or music for the following two songs (first few lines only)if anyone can help, I'd appreciate perhaps an e-mail to [e-mail]

1) He stood in a beautiful mansion surrounded by riches untold and he gazed at a beautiful picture which hung in a frame of gold.

2) Oh dear I'm so tired and so lonely I wonder why mama don't come she told me to shut up my blue eyes, and before I woke up she'd be home

She said she was going to see grandma who lives by the river so wide ??? any help gratefully received Andy Binfield

Song #1 sounds like it could be "If Those Lips Could Only Speak".

If those lips could only speak

I
He stood in a beautiful mansion
Surrounded by riches untold
He gazed at a beautiful picture
That hung in a frame of gold

Twas a picture of a lady
So beautiful young and fair
With his eyes fixed on the picture
He murmured in sad despair

Chorus
If those lips could only speak
If those eyes could only see
If those beautiful golden tresses
Were there in reality

Could I only take your hand
As I did when you took my name
But it's only a beautiful picture
In a beautiful golden frame

II
He stood there and gazed at the painting
In slumber forgetting all pain
(Then slumbered, forgetting all pain??)
And there in that mansion he fancied
She stood by his side again

His lips the softly murmured
The name of his once sweet bride
With his eyes fixed on the picture
He woke from his dream and cried

Chorus

They don't write songs like this anymore!
