"Little Crumbs of Happiness (You Gave Me Long Ago)"
Victor 18776
1921
Words by J. Keirn Brennan
Music by Ernest R. Ball
You could not give me all your
love although I know you tried.
But what you gave made me
your slave, and I was satisfied.
Little crumbs of happiness that fell like
golden grain filled my hungry, homesick
heart and stilled that lonesome pain.
Little drops of tenderness that made
me love you so. Little crumbs of
happiness you gave me long ago.
