Connie Dover My Dearest Dear Lyrics

My Dearest Dear Lyrics

My Dearest dear, the time is near when I and you must part
And no one knows
the inner grief of my poor aching heart.
Or what I suffer for your sake, for
the one I love so dear.
I wish that I could go with you or you could tarry
here.

I wish my heart were made of glass, that in it I might
behold
Your name in secret I would write letters of bright gold
Your name
in secret I would write, pray believe me when I say
You are the one that I
love best until my dying day.

Mo gra thu, a stoirin (I love you, my
Darling)

And when you're on some distant shore think on your absent
friend
And when the wind blows high and clear, a line or two pray
send
And when the wind blows high and clear, pray send it, love, to
me
That I may know by your hand write how times have gone with
thee

My dearest dear, the time is near when you and I must part
And
no one knows the inner grief of my poor aching heart
Or what I suffer for
your sake, for the one I love so dear
I wish that I could go with you or you
could tarry here
