First Line: I often wonder, dear / if in the day

Subject(s): Absence; Wishes; Separation; Isolation
I often wonder, dear,
If in the day,
Or in the moonlit stillness of the night,
When I so often wish that you were near
To make the quiet hours glad and bright;
Oh, most alluring girl of dreams and play,
Child of my hopes through all eternity,
Perfect in all, and with a heart so true,
I wonder, when I think and dream of you,
If you are also thinking then of me.
