VERSE 1
My loved an' we have parted
We have said, our last goodbyes
Here's your ring, I do not want 'et
But your picture, I love so well
We have said, goodbye forever
But never can say, farewell
VERSE 2
Many a day, with you I rambled
Happiest hours I spent with you
I thought your heart was mine forever
But I find it all untrue
VERSE 3
Go an' leave me, if you want to
In this lonely world to me
For in your heart you love another
In my grave I'd druther be
VERSE 4
Many a night I lay sleeping
Dreaming of you as before
While my poor heart is broken
Listenin' to th one that flows
VERSE 5
There is just two things I wish for
That's my casket shroud an' grave
When I'm dead don't weep for me
Just kiss th lips that you betrayed
