I heard this song three times (in one place) the other night. It really doesn’t get old.

Maire Macrae’s Song
The singer is old and has forgotten
Her girlhood’s grief for the young soldier
Who sailed away across the ocean,
Love’s brief joy and lonely sorrow:
The song is older than the singer.
The song is older than the singer
Shaped by the love and the long waiting
Of women dead and long forgotten
Who sang before remembered time
To teach the unbroken heart its sorrow.
The girl who waits for her young soldier
Learns from the cadence of a song
How deep her love, how long the waiting.
Sorrow is older than the heart,
Already old when love is young,
The song is older than the sorrow.
