First Line: "dark, and the shells are falling"
Last Line: Now I am vainly dreaming - / dreaming of you
Subject(s): Army - Canada;world War I; First World War
Dark, and the shells are falling,
Thick as can be.
Somewhere the Sergeant's bawling—
Bawling for me.
Night, and the rain is teeming,
Oh, Mountain Dew,
Now I am vainly dreaming—
Dreaming of you.
