Dear Companion Songtext
von Lissa Schneckenburger

Once I had a dear companion
Indeed I thought his love my own
And then a dark eyed girl betrayed me
And now he cares no more for me

Just go and leave me if you wish to
And it will never trouble me
For in your heart you love another
And in my grave I′d rather be

Late last night while you were sleeping
Dreaming in some sweet repose
And I a poor girl, broken hearted
Listened to the wind that blows


When I see your babe laughing
I think of your smiling face
And when I see your babe crying
I think of my disgrace

Just go and leave me if you wish to
And it will never trouble me
In your heart you love another
And in my grave I'd rather be

In the dark the blackbird′s silent
And at the dawn the blackbird crows
And if I had my own true lover
I would not cry again I know
I would not cry again I know
