Close By |
You’ve gone so far away, my darling |
Each time I think of you I cry |
I press your picture to my bosom |
Then I feel that you’re close by |
Years have passed you’ve not returned dear |
Now they say that you have died |
But your soul will live forever |
Now I know you’ll be close by |
I saw you last while you were leaving |
The tears from you I tried to hide |
You took me in your arms and said dear |
Your memory I keep close by |
They buried you in a lonely graveyard |
And a spot they left beside |
There I’ll sleep 'till Jesus calls us |
So that we can be close by |
