FAREWELL, I THINK I LOVE YOU YET Sung by: Mrs. Myron Scruggs Recorded in Memphis, TN 12/13/62 Click here to listen to the original recording Since time alone has set you free, And you've offered me again the love I craved so fondly years ago. And so you have come back to me, Since time alone has set you free, And you've offered me again the love I craved so fondly years ago. Come close that I may see you now; Your chestnut hair is touched with snow. Oh, happy years of trust and love-- Ah well, 'tis all over now. Oh, happy hours of trust and love-- Ah well, 'tis all over now. Oh, no, you need not speak the words, Those worldly words of trust and truth, For woman's love is always true; God never gives us back our youth. Oh, no, you need not speak the words, Those worldly words of love and truth, For woman's love is always true; God never gives us back our youth. Farewell, I think I love you yet, As friends loves friends, God bless you, dear. God guide you on life's busy paths To where the skies are ever fair. Farewell, I think I love you still, As friends loves friends, God bless you, dear. God guide you on life's busy paths To where the skies are ever fair. |
