| When I was young, I had a lover
|
| But she died one day
|
| So i’ll never love another
|
| No, i’ll never love another the same
|
| But I see her in the sky
|
| Near that riverbend
|
| She’s the moon, she is dressed in white
|
| Oh night, don’t end
|
| No, oh
|
| I am growing old
|
| and my knees are growing weak
|
| I miss the one I loved when I was young
|
| She’s the only one for me
|
| oooh, ohhh
|
| oooh, ohhh
|
| With my worm’s eye view
|
| Oh, I’m looking up to you
|
| Praying with your bird’s eye, you’re looking at me too
|
| I will make my way
|
| Over to the great plains
|
| 'Cause next to you, I see heaven’s gates
|
| So night, don’t end
|
| No, night, no
|
| I am growing old
|
| and my knees are growing weak
|
| I miss the one I loved when I was young
|
| She’s the only one for me
|
| oooh, ohhh
|
| oooh, ohhh
|
| I am growing old
|
| and my knees are growing weak
|
| I miss the one I loved when I was young
|
| She’s the only one for me
|
| oooh, ohhh
|
| oooh, ohhh
|
| I will run
|
| 'Cause the morning brings the sun
|
| and I will lose you when the night is done
|
| Oh, I will run
|
| 'Cause the morning brings the sun
|
| and I will lose you when the night is done, when the night is done |
