Stepstone lyrics

It it sad to be parted from those that we love Strange faces we see every day Each heart string of mine is broken inside When I think of those dear ones and home Goodbye, dear old stepstone, goodbye to my home God bless those I leave with a sigh I'll cherish fond memories when I'm far away To roam o'er this wide world alone And so I stood on my doorstep one evening and mourned And the wind whispered by with a howl Fields may be whitening, but I will be gone To roam o'er this wide world alone Goodbye, dear old stepstone, goodbye to my home God bless those I leave with a sigh, oh! I cherish fond memories when I'm far away To roam o'er this wide world alone And so I stood by my school when that school time was over And I wished for the time to go by And now it has passed and I stand here tonight To bid this old stepstone goodbye Goodbye, dear old stepstone, goodbye to my home God bless those I leave with a sigh, oh! And I will cherish fond memories when I'm far away To roam o'er this wide world alone
