Subject: BS: My New Years Wish
For all my friends, from my heart, my New Years wish for everyone As corney as this messages sounds, maybe we can all sing it and hope it is true
Hard Times Come Again No More (Stephen Collins Foster)
Let us pause in life's pleasures and count it's many tears While we all sup sorrow with the poor There's a song that will linger forever in our ears; Oh, hard times come again no more
Chorus 'Tis the song, the sigh of the weary Hard times, hard times come again no more Many days you have lingered Around my cabin door Oh hard times come again no more
While we seek mirth and beauty and music light and gay There are frail forms fainting at the door Though their voices are silent, their pleading looks will say; Oh, hard times come again no more
Chorus
There's a pale sorrowed maiden who toils her life away With a worn heart whose better days are o'er Though her voice would be merry, 'tis sighing all the day Oh, hard times come again no more
Chorus
'Tis a sigh that is wafted across the troubled wave 'Tis a wail that is heard upon the shore 'Tis a dirge that is murmured around the lowly grave Oh, hard times come again no more
