Andante.
1. Faint - er and faint - er may fall on my ear The
2. Whit - er and whit - er may turn with each day The
3. Dark - er and dark - er a - bove thee may spread The
voice that is sweet - er than mu - sic to hear;
locks that so sad - ly are chang-ing to gray;
clouds of a fate that is hope-less and dread;
More and more ea - ger - ly then will I list, That
Dear - er and dear - er shall these seem to me, The
Bright-er and bright-er the sun of my love Will
nev - er a word or an ac - cent be missed.
few - er an whit - er an thin - ner they be,
shine, all the shad - ows and mists to re - move.
