Scenes That Are Brightest - song lyrics 
American Old-time song lyrics from www.traditionalmusic.co.uk 
Scenes that are Brightest 
Scenes that are brightest May charm awhile Hearts which are lightest, And eyes that smile; Yet o'er them, above us, Though nature may beam. With none to love us. How sad they seem-With none to love us, How sad they seem. 
Words cannot scatter The thoughts we fear. For though they flatt r, They mock the ear. Hopes will still deceive us With tearful cost, And when they leave us The heart is lost-And when they, leave us The heart is lost.
