There upon the foggy night
A dark and dreary, solemn sight
And we with simple words that bite
Did lie alone that somber night.
There upon the foggy night
My soul, it yearns for something bright
These aches, I pray, perhaps they might
Soon disappear to healing light.
There upon the foggy night
I hear you crying, an awful sight
While tears of pain in downward flight
Cascade along your cheeks of white
There upon the foggy night
The moon-rays shone from starry height
And as I held you near and tight
I whisper words so never trite:
“I love you”
There upon the foggy night.
