'''I'LL REMEMBER YOU, LOVE, IN MY PRAYERS'''. AKA - "When the Curtains of Night are Pinned Back," American, Waltz. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. Composed in 1869 by American songwriter W.S. (William Shakespeare) Hays [http://www.pdmusic.org/hays.html] (1837-1907) of Louisville, Kentucky. The tune has proved to be quite popular and appears in many songsters of the late 19th century. It continues to have currency today in a variety of traditions, including among Irish, country-western and bluegrass musicians, as both a waltz and song. There are melodic similarities to the older air "[[Believe Me if All Those Endearing Young Charms]]."  
<blockquote>
''When the curtains of night are pinned back by the stars,''<br>
''And the beautiful moon sweeps the sky,''<br>
''And the dew drops of heaven are kissing the rose,''<br>
''It is then that my memories fly.'' <br>
</blockquote>
