Goodbye My Love My Heart

Goodbye My Love My Heart

I heard a story about young lover's
like Romeo and Juliet of the Tennessee.
It was in the twilight of a summer night
Danny asked his love to run away with him
love has that right.

As they walked along on a rolling river
he told her of all happiness that he hoped give her.
But Abby did not want that little golden band
that he would place with all his love upon her hand.

Danny heard her laughing as she walked away
goodbye my love my heart was all he had to say.
That muddy river then became his grave
but his final words still echoed from deep beneath it's waves.

Goodbye my love my heart was all he had to say
and a young girl cried that night for the love she threw away. She cried Danny come back to me
then the rolling river took her back into his arms to stay

Goodbye my love my heart was all he had to say.
Danny come back to me I'll never go away.

In the twilight of a summer night young lovers dance forever beneath a pale moon light.
Now Danny and Abby are forever young like Romeo and Juliet of the Tennessee.

Like Romeo and Juliet of the Tennessee.
