There's little joy in life for me
And little terror in the grave
I 've lived the parting hour to see
Of one I would have died to save
Calmly to watch the failing breath
Wishing each sigh might be the last
Longing to see the shade of de-death
The cloud, the stillness that must part
The darling of my life is gone
Now in heaven, I may search
You are the dark shade in my heart
I rather not be anymore
Down here if it is alone
I am crying, I'm not crying
I could be laughing with you
But I'm crying, I'm not crying
Why so early did you go?
Life's unfair, It's so unfair
I could be laughing with you
Talk to you, but you're not there
In my heart now you belong
