—Bill Monroe
I'm beggin'to you and I want to go with you
You're breakin' my heart as you say goodbye
I hope and I pray we'll soon be together
My heart is so full It's hard not to cry
What will I do when the leaves start fallin
The far distant hill will make me feel blue
So the flowers will die, dont't let love die with them
And with you gone, dear what will I do
Your sweet ruby lips and hair like an angel
And your mournful eyes, they keep haunting me
But to know that you're mine, it makes life worth living
Oh the times gone by are sweet memories
I'm trustin'in you but each hour seems longer
I'm counting the days when I'll be with you
Our hearts are entwined, their place with the future
A safe journey home I'm waiting for you
