Emmylou Harris "Hard Times" |
(Stephen Foster) Let us pause in life's pleasures and count her 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. It's a song the sigh of the weary hard times Hard times come again no more Many days you have lingered all around my door Oh, hard times come again no more. Though 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. It's a song the sigh of the weary hard times Hard times come again no more Many days you have lingered all around my door Oh, hard times come again no more. There's a pale young maiden who foils her life away With a worn out heart whose better days are o'er Though her voice it would be singing it's sighing all the day Oh hard times come again no more. It's a song the sigh of the weary hard times Hard times come again no more Many days you have lingered all around my door Oh, hard times come again no more. Oh, hard times come again no more...
