## The words

When I am dying, lean over me tenderly,  
softly,  
Stoop as the yellow roses, Stoop as the yellow  
roses droop in the wind from the South,  
droop in the wind from the South So I may when I  
wake,  
So I may  
when I awake:  
If there be an awak'ning,  
If there be an awak'ning.  
So I may when I wake  
Keep what lull'd me to sleep; the touch of your  
lips the touch of your lips the touch of your  
lips, on my mouth,  
The touch of your lips on my mouth.
