Darling I am all alone in our little mountain home It's empty cold and loveless now inside For your childish love and vows lasted only one short year Now you’ve gone away to be another's bride You will never know the pain That I felt the day you left Should you ever wed again Let me wish you love and wealth While that same old whippoorwill breaks the silence on the hill I stand and gaze upon the faded wall Where your picture used to hang in a little golden frame And a vision of your smile I still recall Though they say we live and learn from our sorrows we must turn And be able to forget sad memories Let me wish you love and wealth may you take good care of yourself But my broken heart will last eternally Let me wish you love and wealth
