EVER OF THEE I'M FONDLY DREAMING. Air (2/4 time). D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). "Ever of thee I'm fondly dreaming" is a song [Roud Number: 13774] with music by Foley Hall and words by George Linley, published in 1858. It begins:
Ever of thee I'm fondly dreaming,
Thy gentle voice my spirit can cheer;
Thou wert the star that mildly beaming,
Shone o'er my path when all was dark and drear.
Still in my heart thy form I cherish,
Ev'ry kind thought like a bird flies to thee;
Ah! never till life and mem'ry perish,
Can I forget how dear thou art to me;
Morn, noon and night where-e'er I may be.
