Fair and True

Oh the Earth has dirtied this lonesome heart And the wind has brought it to you Oh the days are the long and the days are hard But the life proves fair and true Oh the seasons turn and the summer burns And the days grow longer anew Though you've left our home for the world to roam My heart will go with you Oh the Earth has dirtied this lonesome heart And the wind has brought it to you Oh the days are the long and the days are hard But the life proves fair and true And we sing, dear maiden, of days far gone Of the loves and losses alike Though our days of searching are long since gone We rejoice all through the night Oh the Earth has dirtied this lonesome heart And the wind has brought it to you Oh the days are the long and the days are hard But the life proves fair and true Oh the Earth has dirtied this lonesome heart And the wind has brought it to you Oh the days are the long and the days are hard But the life proves fair and true Oh the life proves fair and true
