Do You Remember

Do you remember a school, Verletta Do you wander there again To hear the hymns of Dunstan River And sink the ships of rain Do you remember a boy, Verletta Do you think of him again Riding by your gate with his letter You never read to know his pain Do you remember an evening, Verletta Do you recall the past so vain I towed you on my bicycle, and forever Wore your name to the school's disdain And do your remember ever the lilacs Blooming golden still, bees humming Round your cottage like arawaks And you, my love, so stunning, stunning?
