Dear sweetheart, as I write to you My heart is filled with pain For if these things I hear are true I'll never see you again
They tell me, darlin', that tonight You'll wed another man But if you do, I'll tell you true My boat will never land
You promised that you would wait for me That nothin' could come between That in my arms someday you'd be My wife and lovely queen
I builded you that cozy home And made a garden there And planted too with my own hands Sweet flowers rich and rare
My future hopes are placed in you You've been my guidin' star Please write and tell me that you're true To the sailor who waits afar
Just tell me that you love me yet Still long to be my wife I'll return and then we'll wed And live a happy lifeTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
