Oh a long time ago when I left my old home I thought my darlin' I'd leave you behind But as time lingers on I can't go it alone But darlin' somehow you're still on my mind
Each night I'm so lonely thinkin of you I wonder sweetheart if you feel the same I'm on my way back to start lovin' you For often in dreams love I call your name
I've heard lots of things since I've been gone But I never thought that you was unkind Well, you'd take me back just as before But darlin' somehow you're still on my mind
Someday when we're old and weary of life Our time is no longer we'll have to part We'll meet up in heaven just as before Up there with God I'll call you sweetheart.
