Here Lies Love

Bing Crosby · The Vintage Years, Cd A [2009]

Night winds cold & melancholy

Wail the ? & holly

Oh my tragedy



Like a misery

Made for only me

While I linger weary

'Neath a willow tree



Right here our romance was started

Here again we parted

When I set you free



All my thoughts are jumbled

Everything is blurred

Oh the world has crumbled

Shattered by a word



The end has come

By heart is numb

Was like a volt from the blue above

I can't believe it

But you're gone darling

And here lies love



The skies dark

And I hear a lark

He sounds as sad as a mournful dove

The dew appears like the tears of gone

Darling for here lies love



All my dreams lost beyond recall

Dreams of spring blessed within the fall

You gave lips

You gave arms

I gave all



I ought to cry

My eyes are dry

There's only one thing I'm conscious of

I only know that I can't go on

Darling here lies love



The end has come

And my heart is numb

It was like a volt from the blue above

I can't believe it but you're gone darling

And here lies love



I only know that I can't go on

Darling for here lies love
