Tonight as I kneel by my darlin' I know that she's sleeping so sound I watch the bright stars up in Heaven As they shine on a newly made mound
Beneath the cold clay she lies sleeping She has left this cold world behind Tonight I know that she's in Heaven She was nobody's darling but mine
She said she'd be nobody's darlin' And her voice was sweet and so kind As I sat by her side and she told me She'd be nobody's darling but mine
Each night while the bright Moon is shining While the flowers are covered with dew I will kneel by the side of my darlin' For I know that she loved me so true
Someday I know that I shall meet her With the angels in Heaven so kind Up there we'll be sweethearts forever She was nobody's darling but mine
She said she'd be nobody's darlin' And her voice was sweet and so kind As I sat by her side and she told me She'd be nobody's darling but mine.
