He stood in a beautiful mansion
surrounded by riches untold,
And he gazed at a beautiful picture
that hung in a frame of gold;
Was a picture of a lady,
so beautiful, young and fair,
To the beautiful life-like vision
he murmered in sad despair:
If those lips could only speak
and those eyes could only see,
Those beautiful golden tresses
were here in reality;
Could I only take your hand
as I did when you took my name,
But it's only a beautiful picture
in a beautiful golden frame.
He stood there and gazed at that picture,
slumbering, forgetting all pain,
There in that mansion in fancy
she stood by his side again;
His lips softly murmered the name
of his woman sweet bride,
With his eyes fixed on the picture,
he awoke from the dream and he cried:
If those lips could only speak
and those eyes could only see,
Those beautiful golden tresses
were here in reality;
Could I only take your hand
as I did when you took my name,
But it's only a beautiful picture
in a beautiful golden frame...
But it's only a beautiful picture
in a beautiful, golden frame.
