Dear-est one, do you re--mem---ber When we last did meet,
When the sum-mer breeze is sighing, mournfully along,
If amid the din of battle, nobly you should fall,
But our Country called you, loved--one, angels cheer your way;

When you told me that you lov - ed me, Kneel- ing at my feet?
Or when autumn leaves are falling, sadly breathes the song.
Far away from those who love you, none to hear you call
While our South-ern boys are fighting, we can only pray.

Oh how proud you stood be - fore me, In your s suit of gray,
Oft in dreams I see thee lying on the battle plain,
Who would whisper words of comfort, who would soothe your pain?
When you strike for God and freedom, let all nations see

When you vowed to me and country, Ne'er to go a-stray
lonely, wounded, even dying, calling but in vain
Ah! The many cruel fancies, ever in my brain.
How we loved the southern banner, emblem of the free.[Chorus]
