My Sweetheart You - Hamish Anderson

I’ve been alone, so very long

Never had much, to keep me holding on

Oh but once, once upon a time

Through and through

There was you

Oh My Sweetheart you

Now the sun doesn’t shine, the clouds hang low

My falling tears, like a river they flow

So caught up in days, days now come and gone

With thoughts that once all were true

When there was My Sweetheart you

All your kisses, they used to fall like rain

Now i’m dying from the thought that you won’t be coming back again

All I do, is sit and wonder why

As I wait round for all, for all my tear drops to dry

Dry, dry, dry, dry

Now all I have, all I have is time

And Nina’s voice echoes, and I can taste the lilac wine

Oh and I’m gone, with thoughts that once all were true

When there was My Sweetheart you

Oh there was my

My Sweetheart you
