Broken Engagement

歌詞

They were standing by a window As the night winds kissed her cheek And he'd waited long in silence Waited long for her to speak Till at last she murmured sadly As she raised her tearful life With a look so full of anguish That had filled him with surprise I have promised you my darling So that I may tell you all Hear those vows by angels Drifted are forever past recall For they say you love another That you never did love me If those cruel words are true Dear, I'll forever set you free Yes, it's true he answered hostly Through by yonder stars above To deceive I nearly tended When I told you of my love Fare thee well, he added gently As he sees her outstretched hands Covered in with burning kissed Whispering God will understand God in mercy sent an angel To relive her from all care For he knew the way what sorrow was Far more than she could bear She was taken home to heaven To the mansions of the bless Where the sad heart knows no aching And the weary are at rest
