In a quaint old-fashioned home As humble as could be Upon a violin a boy played soulfully A girl whose heart was never filled with love Just listened to that melody And while a teardrop went astray She whispered pleadingly:
Play that soothing symphony It's like an angel's melody Just hear it moaning plaintively "Come to me--I want you!" That music won my heart It made my feelings start Dearie, make me cheery Oh, that music draws you near me Let me rest right in your arms That melody has magic charms I love that soothing symphony
