So Long My Sweet Darling

by Tony Whitaker


As the twilight breaks the night
as the shadows take their flight
into my heart I feel the bite
for it wont be long
Im going on
Im going on
Im so alone

As I sense the dawn breaking
I feel the ground shaking
and I know you wont be waiting
for it wont be long
Im going on
Im going on
Im so alone

And the rain drops keep on falling
down my cheeks I feel them crawling
Ill never forget you my sweet darling
so sad to know the memory
before long
of me forgone
into the gloam
but we had the dawn
I'm so alone


As I look upon the dew
upon my feet thinking of you
wishing you felt the same way too
Ill miss you all the same
Its time to go
Ill miss you so
I'll miss you so

And the raindrops keep on falling
down my cheeks I feel them crawling
Ill never forget you my sweet darling
so sad to know the memory
before long
of me forgone
into the gloam
but we had the dawn
I'm so alone

Kleenex in hand - I would love to hear this sung. Nice job.
