Lost Love Blues

歌詞

I lost you darling true love And now I'm growing old My pockets are all empty Of both silver and gold While my money lasted You gave my heart ease But since I have nothing You court who you please I am heartbroken and lonely No one can take your place Everywhere I chance to look I can see your smiling face Darling, oh darling sweetheart Your name I'll never tell If you don't change your cruel ways My soul is doomed for hell Don't shed a tear my darling As the daisy o'er me grows Just decorate my lonesome grave With the wilted faded rose If I had a pass to glory And it did not read for two I'd trade it off for your true love And stay on earth with you Your eyes, they shine like diamonds Your cheeks are like the rose The way I love you darling girl Great God in heaven knows Lost love, lost love, my darling How can you treat me so To leave your own true lover And with a false one go Many times over you I've pondered Happy hours with you I've spent You've won my heart forever While your own was only lent There'll come a time my darling In just a few short more days You'll hang your head in sorrow As I'm lowered in my grave Keep all the little tokens I have so fondly gave Just grant to me my last request Take them with you to your grave Don't shed a tear my darling As the daisy o'er me grows Just decorate my lonesome grave With the wilted faded rose
