Darlin' You Know I Love You

Darlin', darlin' you know i love you

I love you, for myself

But you're gone, gone and left me for someone else



I think of you, think of you every morning

I dream of you, every night

And i'd love to be with you always



When night began to fall

I cry, cry alone

And i wish, i could hold you in my arms tonight



Darlin', darlin' you know i love you

I love you, for myself

But you're gone, gone and left me for someone else
