Description: All of the sheet music we sell is always ALL ORIGINAL and never reproduced or photocopied! Offered here is a vintage antique 19th century sheet music; "Home and Friends or When The Sun Goes Down" Respectfully Dedicated to Miss Mary J. Stinson, by Alice Hawthorn (Septimus Winner), Published by Wm. A. Pond & Co., New York, 1857. Sheet has light foxing and oxidation, from a previously bound volume - thus tiny chips along the spine. All music is shipped in plastic, between stiff cardboard and with delivery confirmation.1. When the sun goes down, and the blue from out the sky; As the day with its sunlight ends, How I sigh for thee as I'm sitting all alone, When I think of my home and my friends: For still do I dream of the many, many days, That came like a charm to me then, And my heart would break if I though thou could'st forget, Should I live to behold thee again. 2. Tho' the day be bright and as cheerfull as old, I rejoice not to share its light, For my heart is sad in its loneliness away, Be it day, or the solitude of night: But oh! it is sweet, with a sorrow of my heart, To pause as the stars descend, And to think of thee in a region far away, As the pride of my heart and a friend. 3. When the sun goes down, in the silence of the night Oh! my heart-- how it sighs for home, Yet I still would stay in my solitude away, If a change o'er thy spirit should come: For all that I prize is thy merry merry laugh, And my fate on thy friendship depends; For my heart would break, if my hand thou would'st forsake, Should I greet thee at home with my friends.

Shipping Procedures I pride myself on quick shipping. I ship next business day after payment is received. Please note Buyers from outside of the United States are responsible for any and all duties, tariffs or other fees that YOUR country may impose. Once a package is in the Postal Service hands, I lose control over it. Generally, for US shipments you can expect delivery within 3 or 4 business days (or 3-9 for media rate). For non-US shipments, once the package leaves the US, even the USPS loses control over it. I cannot predict transit times for these packages. They quite often are held up in customs in the receiving country. Please be patient.
