I sat in the window of my room
Watched you go away
It was all I could do
It was all I could do

You're going away
To leave me alone
In all of this sorrow
In this misery

So look now, my darling
I'll have to abandon
All thought of you
As you're going away

I still see your dear little head
As it touched mine
Saying goodbye
Forever goodbye

Those words you said to me
Have broken my heart
Yes, they've broken my heart
They were false and did lie

Goodbye, my dear
Goodbye forever
You're going away
You're going away

Death is hard
But your leaving is worse
Oh, yes, my dear
Your leaving is worse

You're going, my dear
You're going forever
And leaving me all alone
In all of this grief

So how, my dear
How will I forget you
When I see your face
Wherever I go

When I close my eyes
It's sad though I see you
Your beautiful blue eyes
Your beautiful lie

I sat in the window of my room
And watched you go away
It was all I could do
It was all I could do
