With All Her Faults, I Love Her Still

Letra y Música: Monroe H. Rosenfeld
(Hitchcock's Music Stores, New York, 1888)

Letra:

With all her faults I love her still, And even though the world should scorn;
No love like hers, my heart can thrill, Although she´s made that heart forlorn
Tho! other hearts have won her love, I bear for her no dreams of ill; 
Her face to me still dear shall be, With all her faults I love, I love her still. 
With all her faults I love her still, And even so till death doth part; 
No love like hers my soul can thrill, No Other love can win my heart; 
I love her still, I love her still, With all her faults I love her still. 

She went away one Summer day, And never came again to me. 
And since that day I long and pray. That I may pass life's dreary sea! 
I see her now as first we met. The sunlight shining o'er her brow; 
The days were joy without alloy. But, ah! my heart, my heart is weary now. 
With all her faults I love her still. And even so till death doth part; 
No love like hers my soul can thrill, No other love can win my heart; 
I love her still, I love her still. With all her faults I love her still. 

With all her faults I love her still, Although her love for me is dead; 
In ev'ry dream her smile doth beam. Nor care I what the world hath said. 
I know that she'll return again. Although her face no more I greet, 
And when this life shall end the strife, I know that we, that we again shall meet. 
With all her faults I love her still, And even so till death doth part; 
No love like hers my soul can thrill, No other love can win my heart; 
I love her still, I love her still, With all her faults I love her still.
