[00:00.61] When I am old, and comforted,
[00:02.37] And done with this desire,
[00:04.63] With memory to share my bed.
[00:08.60] When I am old, and comforted,
[00:10.27] And done with this desire,
[00:12.64] With peace to share my fire,
[00:16.41]
[00:16.77] I'll comb my hair in scalloped bands
[00:20.03] Beneath my laundered cap,
[00:24.75] And watch my cool and fragile hands
[00:28.81] Lie light upon my lap.
[00:31.45]
[00:32.81] And I will have a sprigged gown
[00:36.86] With lace to kiss my throat;
[00:40.78] I'll draw my curtain to the town,
[00:44.86] And hum a purring note.
[00:47.56]
[00:48.88] And I'll forget the way of tears,
[00:52.66] And rock, and stir my tea.
[00:56.96] But oh, I wish those blessed years
[01:00.90] Were further than they be!
[01:04.09]
[01:04.98] And I will have a sprigged gown
[01:08.85] With lace to kiss my throat;
[01:12.77] I'll draw my curtain to the town,
[01:16.90] And hum a purring note.
[01:20.41]
[01:20.84] When I am old, and comforted,
[01:22.84] And done with this desire,
[01:25.14] With memory to share my bed
[01:28.98] When I am old, and comforted,
[01:30.80] And done with this desire,
[01:33.07] With peace to share my fire,
[01:37.19] With peace to share my fire,
[01:40.09]
