The Sad Lover 歌詞

Oh I'm sad and I'm lonely for my darlin' And I weep like I never did before For she's far away from me and I'm dreary as can be For I'll never see my darlin' anymore Oh, I'd meet her each evenin' in the moonlight And we'd wander together by the shore Soon she gave her word to me that my blushing bride she'd be But I'll never see my darlin' anymore For we'd quarreled before we reached the altar It was fate brought a stranger to her door With his fancy ways and grace in her heart he took my place And I'll never see my darlin' anymore Oh the postman brought a letter just this mornin' It was sent from a distant, foreign shore Was a letter edged in black and it said alas, alas You will never see your darlin' anymore
