| I’ll deck my brow with roses
|
| My true love may be there
|
| And gems that others gave me Shall shine within my hair
|
| And even them that know me Will think my heart is light
|
| Though my heart will break tomorrow
|
| I’ll be all smiles tonight
|
| Chorus: D I’ll be all smiles tonight, love,
|
| I’ll be all smiles tonight
|
| Though my heart may break tomorrow
|
| I’ll be all smiles tonight.
|
| And when the room he entered
|
| The bride upon his arm
|
| I stood and gazed upon him
|
| As though he was a charm
|
| And then he smiled upon her
|
| As once he smiled on me They know not what
|
| I suffered
|
| They found no change in me Chorus
|
| And when the dance is over
|
| And all have gone to rest
|
| I’ll think of him, dear mother
|
| The one that I love best
|
| He once did love, believe me But now he’s cold and strange
|
| He sought not to deceive me False friends have brought this change chorus |
