And Time shall cease to be;
When song and joy shall sadly pine,
And none there be that grieve;
When love be but a faded dream,
Then truly I'll believe,
Yes, I'll believe you, I'll believe you then.
When... moonlight and the midnight cease,
To weave their ancient spell,
And shrouded Past, and thundrous Deep,
Shall all their secrets tell;
When youth and fire and laughter pine,
And none there be that grieve,
When love be but a faded dream,
Then truly I'll believe,
Yes, I'll believe you, I'll believe you then.
When railways all are quite complete,
And none shall break the laws:
When women simply will Not speak,
And police wear number fours;
When rates and taxes cease to be,
And men shall sigh and grieve,
And wish the dear old taxes back,
Then truly I'll believe,
Yes, I'll believe you, I'll believe you then.
