Give me a few more hours to pass
With the mellow flower of the elm bough falling
And then no more than the lonely grass
And the birds calling
And the birds calling
Give me a few more days to keep
With a little love and a little sorrow
And then the dawn in the skies of sleep
And a clear tomorrow
And a clear tomorrow
Give me a few more years to fill
With a little work and a little lending
And then the night on a starry hill
And the road's ending
And the road's ending
Give me a few more hours to pass
With the mellow flower of the elm bough falling
And then no more than the lonely grass
And the birds calling
Give me a few more days to keep
With a little love and a little sorrow
And then the dawn in the skies of sleep
And a clear tomorrow
Give me a few more years to fill
With a little work and a little lending
And then the night on a starry hill
And the road's ending
Give me a few more hours to pass
Give me a few more days to keep
Give me a few more hours to pass
Give me a few more days to keep
