(Ned Washington - Dimitri Tiomkin)
Do not forsake me, oh my darling, on this our wedding day
Do not forsake me, oh my darling, wait, wait along
I do not know what fate awaits me, I only know I must be brave
And I must face a man who hates me
Or lie a coward, a craven coward, or lie a coward in my grave.
Oh, to be torn twixt love and duty, supposin' I lose my fairhaired beauty
Look at that big hand move along, nearing high noon
He made a vow while in state prison, vowed it would be my life or his'n
I'm not afraid at all, of what will I do if you leave me.
Do not forsake me, oh my darling, you made that promise as a bride
Do not forsake me, oh my darling, although you're grieving don't think of leaving
Now that I need you by my side
Wait along, wait alongm wait along, wait along...
Do not forsake me, oh my darling, on this our wedding day
Do not forsake me, oh my darling, wait, wait along
I do not know what fate awaits me, I only know I must be brave
And I must face a man who hates me
Or lie a coward, a craven coward, or lie a coward in my grave.
Oh, to be torn twixt love and duty, supposin' I lose my fairhaired beauty
Look at that big hand move along, nearing high noon
He made a vow while in state prison, vowed it would be my life or his'n
I'm not afraid at all, of what will I do if you leave me.
Do not forsake me, oh my darling, you made that promise as a bride
Do not forsake me, oh my darling, although you're grieving don't think of leaving
Now that I need you by my side
Wait along, wait alongm wait along, wait along...
