Broken Hearted Lover

Would you let her part us darling
Could you truly turn away
Would it make your heart ache darling
Not to see me night or day

Chorus
I've been dreaming of you darling
Dreaming of your eyes so blue
Take me back for love I'm dying
For I love none else but you

Many a day with you I've rambled
Down by the shades of the deep blue sea
There you told me that you love me
That you love none else but me

I will give you back your letters
And the picture I loved so well
How it makes my heart ache darling
Oh, 'tis hard to say farewell
