The Carter Family - I'm Thinking Tonight of My Blue Eyes lyrics

[Verse 1] Would have been better for us both had we never In this wide and wicked world had never met For the pleasure we've both seen together I am sure, love, I'll never forget [Chorus] Oh, I'm thinking tonight of my blue eyes Who is sailing far over the sea Oh, I'm thinking tonight of my blue eyes And I wonder if he ever thinks of me [Verse 2] Oh, you told me once, dear, that you loved me You said that we never would part But a link in the chain has been broken Leaves me with a sad and aching heart [Chorus] [Verse 3] When the cold, cold grave shall enclose me Will you come, dear, and shed just one tear And say to the strangers around you A poor heart you have broken lies here [Chorus]
