Were you to sing some lonesome morning
And swallow my last breath
If by your lips we were parted
I'd remember you as true
A desert rain is also falling
It has drowned my lonesome mind
Its oh so still, the flowers wilted
Though they recall a heart untrue
A heart for dreaming will tear blossom from the vine
Had I tried and lord I tried
But for every love you're mourning
You'd still be mine
