I turned the key in the lock tonight
And walked slowly into the room
Your presence hung like a heavy mist
And I knew death had come to soon
The stars maybe shining for somebody else
The moon maybe giving us light
But all that I have is a memory of you
And I’m lost in a world black as night
Death came too soon to the one that I love
And now I must travel alone
Just a wanderin’ boy with a broken heart
Whose sweetheart and pal is now gone
I’ll travel on through this world of dispair
I’ll just force myself to go on
I find myself wishing ev-‘ryday
I could be with her in the beyond
