Lovely voice and lovely interpretation of a beautiful ballad- thanx to Ms Tubb for the singing, and to the poster for sharing it.

I found the lyrics of this song written down in my great-great grandmother's scrapbook and had to find it. Beautiful song.

One of my favourites...and a true love story. The lyricist was a governess. Her lover was the son of the family she worked for. The family forced them apart. She wrote this poem about their parting, and some years later Anne Fortescue Harrison set it to music. When her old flame heard the song, he tracked her down. They married and lived happily ever after. Such was the power of this beautiful song.

I keep coming back to listen to this - love it.

My grandmother sang this to me

I hear this song on an Andy Griffith episode occasionally. It is a nice lyrical piece.

"The Story" did an amazing job recording this, with eerily beautiful harmonies and a bit slower. Amazing, can find on youtube or amazon...

Yeah, from their 1993 album "The Angel in the House". ;)

So beautiful!

Wonderful singing, good piano playing--but what on earth was Evelyn Tubb doing singing with such an out-of-tune piano?

Outstanding! I have heard of this piece (it is mentioned in the Broadway Musical, "The Music Man"), but have never heard it. To find a version with such a beautiful singer was marvelous. Here's some info that people might find interesting. The song was written by English composer Annie Fortescue Harrison (1850-1?-1944) with lyrics by Meta Caroline Orred (1845-6-1925), which came from her book "Poems" (1874). All information from Wikipedia. This was her most popular song.
