Lyrics
Yodel-ladee-oh-ladee-oh-ladee As the dark holy night creeps around me In silence I kneel down in tears Many sound sleeping souls do surround me As my thoughts wander back many years And with a young girl I am roaming And speaking of treasures divine We kiss and caress in the gloaming She was nobody’s darling but mine I gaze into her eyes at twilight Years of happiness then I could see Her smile sparkled bright in the star light Oh why was she taken from me? That night when you told me in kindness That your eye sight was failing and then You spent your last days in sheer blindness My heart broke to ne’er mend again No one was more kind or more sweeter She longed to be queen of a home I pray that some day I shall meet her In that far off wonderful home Oh dear lord of justice in heaven Oh hear me as I humbly pray Ever linger with my dearest darling ‘Till I meet her up yonder some day Yodel-ladee-oh-ladee-oh-ladee
