Once I Had a Sweetheart

Once I had a sweetheart and now I have none
Once I had a sweetheart and now I have none
Hes gone and left me Hes gone and left me
Gone and left me in sorrow to mourn
Last night in sweet slumber I dreamed I did see
Last night in sweet slumber I dreamed I did see
My own darling jewel sat smiling by me
My own darling jewel sat smiling by me
But when I awakened I found it not so
But when I awakened I found it not so
My eyes like some fountain with tears overflowed
Eyes like some fountain with tears overflowed
Ill venture through England, through France and through Spain
Ill venture through England, through France and through Spain
My life Ill venture on watery main
My life Ill venture on watery main
Ill set sail of silver and steer toward the sun
Ill set sail of silver and steer toward the sun
And my false love will weep, my false love will weep
False love will weep for me after Im gone
After Im gone, After Im gone, After Im gone...
