High Noon (do Not Forsake Me) Lyrics

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 the 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 spposin' I lose my fairhaired beauty

Look at that big hand move along nearing high noon

He made a vow while in state's 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 along wait along wait along
