and gone, gone, gone.

and eerie light of the moon.

Gone, gone, my Beatrice.
Gone, the lips I longed to kiss,
into a black and bleak abyss.
Gone, gone, gone.  (Gone are the summers of croquet and cribbage.)

Were teary, teary eyes once bright?  (Gone, gone)
Weary sighs the tune.  (are the winters of)
Dreary, dreary fall the night (snow)
and eerie light of the moon. (sighs and secrets)


Were teary, teary eyes once bright?  (Gone, too)
Weary sighs the tune.  (silver springs, golden)
Dreary, dreary fall the night (falls)
and eerie light of the moon. (dreary, dreary, dreary, dreary)
