watched the storm rolling in
you drinking whiskey and I with my gin.
My hands ached from work but
your voice it was smooth as
we gazed at the green in the pale afternoon
But you heard me crying
Falling asleep with the moon.
And I cry out at bed time,
Why did my love die so soon.
I love you my darling
I love you my dear
I miss you my darling I wish you were here.
My days are so long now,
I must go on somehow,
but the nights are so cold without you to hold
But you heard me crying
falling asleep with the moon.
And I cry out at bedtime,
why did my love die so soon.
