Artist/Band: Hank Snow
Lyrics for Song: I Cried But My Tears Were Too Late
Lyrics for Album: Master Of Melancholy [2011]



(Hank Snow)



One heart too many I have broken

Love dreams that faded away

Too many teardrops have fallen

Too many vows cast aside.



Soft wedding bells should be ringing

For us in the chapel tonight

But this morning they tolled and her bright band of gold

Was returned with this message tonight.



Your sweetheart has left us today

Heart broken God took her away

That silk gown of white for her wedding tonight

She wore as they laid her away.



Though she died for a love all in vain

Her last words were calling your name

As I walked to her grave where the bluebonnets wave

I cried but my tears were too late.



Tonight sweetheart as I kneel here alone beside you

And my tears stain the flowers on your grave

In deep regret I think of the heart that I have wounded

Of the sorrow and grief and the life that I could have saved.



Yes, tonight darling you were to be my loving bride

But all that I have left now as I bow to pray

Is your ring a picture the sad message that they sent me

And this rose that I am taking from your grave.



Though she died for a love all in vain

Her last words were calling your name

As I walked to her grave where the bluebonnets wave

I cried but my tears were too late...
