Now it's over, and now it's done; br Why does everything look the same? br Just as bright, the unheeding sun, -- br Can't it see that the parting came? br People hurry and work and swear, br Laugh and grumble and die and wed, br Ponder what they will eat and wear, -- br Don't they know that our love is dead? br br Just as busy, the crowded street; br Cars and wagons go rolling on, br Children chuckle, and lovers meet, -- br Don't they know that our love is gone? br No one pauses to pay a tear; br None walks slow, for the love that's through, -- br I might mention, my recent dear, br I've reverted to normal, too.
