《Fortaken Love》歌词

[00:00:00] Fortaken Love - The Carter Family (卡特家族)

[00:00:17] They stood in the moonlight nearby the gate

[00:00:20] Goodbye my darling I know you'll wait

[00:00:25] She ceased weeping and smiled through tears

[00:00:28] Saying I've been true love through these long years

[00:00:33] For on tomorrow at the break of day

[00:00:36] He was to journey far far away

[00:00:41] He held her closer his promised bride

[00:00:44] And to her questions these words replied

[00:00:49] I've loved you always yes I've been true

[00:00:52] My heart shall never be love but for you

[00:00:57] Oh darling believe me far over the sea

[00:01:00] Through life or death still faithful I'll be

[00:01:20] One year passed by he's coming home

[00:01:24] His pilgrimage over no longer to roam

[00:01:28] And smiling he thinks of her shining eye

[00:01:32] Shining with welcome a glad surprise

[00:01:36] A dainty letter he takes from his breast

[00:01:40] To which his extended lips were pressed

[00:01:44] And reading once more by the warming light

[00:01:47] The words he had spoken to her that night

[00:01:52] I've loved you always yes I've been true

[00:01:55] My heart shall never be love but for you

[00:02:00] Oh darling believe me far over the sea

[00:02:03] Through life or death still faithful I'll be

[00:02:07] Once more he seeks the old garden gate

[00:02:11] But he arrives alas alas it's too late

[00:02:15] The wedding is over the knot is tied

[00:02:19] He finds his darling another's bride

[00:02:23] And later they found him there on the grass

[00:02:26] A pistol nearby still holding fast

[00:02:31] A crop of letters that explained the deed

[00:02:34] And in the pale moonlight these words did read

[00:02:39] I've loved you always yes I've been true

[00:02:42] My heart shall never be love but for you

[00:02:47] Oh darling believe me far over the sea

[00:02:50] Through life or death still faithful I'll be
