Since you and I parted in silence and tears
So broken hearted we've suffered for years
Your cheek was pale and your hand was so cold
I remember you saying as you turned to go
That I'd cry in my sleep and your name I would call
Your face I would see every night on my wall
That I'd waken in the morning in tears to recall
You're tellin' me darling so long long ago
[ steel - guitar ]
If we should meet after long lonely years if I should greet you with silence and tears
But if I'd reach to touch you oh so you will know
I remember you're tellin' me long long ago
That I'd cry in my sleep
I remember you darling from long long ago
