Lorena (洛雷娜) (Album Version) - John Hartford
Written by：Traditional/J. Hartfort
For the years creep slowly by Lorena
The snow is on the grass again
The sun's low down the sky Lorena
The frost gleams where the flowers have been
But my heart beats on as warmly now
As when the summer days were nigh
All the sun can never dip so low
To be down affections cloudless sky
A hundred months have passed Lorena
Since last I held that hand in mine
And felt the pulse beat fast Lorena
Though mine beat faster far than thine
A hundred months 'twas flowery may
When up the hilly slope we climbed
To watch the dying of the day
And hear the distant church bells chime
We loved each other then Lorena
Far more than we ever dared to tell
And what we might have been Lorena
Had our lovings prospered well
Then it's past the years for long
I'll not call up their shadowy forms
I'll say to them lost years sleep on
Sleep on heed life's pelting storms
