if it wasn t for your golden hair
I would not be belonely
If it wasn t for your golden hair
I would not be alone
If it wasn t for your piercing stare
I would not be belonely
If it wasn t for your piercing stare
I would not be alone
I would not waltz in a widow s line
What was yours would not be mine
If it wasn t for your golden hair
I would not be alone
You courted me with princely airs
Said you d love me only
Kiss the ribbons in my hair
Said darling come and fly
Flower of the Calvary
You swept me off my saddle
Lifted me into your life
A soldier s wife was I
You marched proudly for the horn
I prayed for your swift return
I waited for you so forlorn
Ere to be alone
I longed for you, I longed to die
I was so belonely
The pillow s bare by my side
And yet I shall abide
For heaven has aset for me
Companion for eternity
So kiss the ribbons in my hair
Say darling come and fly
If it wasn t for your golden hair
I would not be alonely
If it wasn t for your golden hair
