| I WANTED you when skies were red, | |
| And now the sky is gray; | |
| I thought of you when shadows fled | |
| Now falls the end of day. | |
| |
| I called you when the hills were flame, | 5 |
| And now the hills are bare; | |
| I sought you when the snowflakes came, | |
| And now the swallows pair! | |
