User-Contributed Transcription Dear Friends at home,Draw near me nowAnd listen till I tell you how,The ling'ring time has passed away,Since that one long remembered day,That saw me borne away from you,Sweet friends, sweet home, so dear, so true,Oh, it was hard for me to part,From those so dear, so near to my heart,And it is hard for me to stay,So very, very long away.But can it be that it is wrong, for me to say the time seems long,For me to feel it pass so slow,And wish it would more quickly go?
