]Do Not Forsake M

Do not forsake me,oh my darling
by Frankie Laine
Do not forsake me,oh my darling
On this our wedding day
Do not forsake me,oh my darling
Wait,wait along
I do not know what fate awaits me
I only know I must be brave
And I must face a man who hates me
Or lie a coward, a craven coward
Or lie a coward in my grave
O to be torn twixt love and duty
Sposin' I lose my fair-haired beauty
Look at that big hand
Move along nearing high noon
He made a vow while in state's prison
Vowed it would be my life for his
I'm not afraid of death but
Oh ,what shall I do if you leave me
Do not forsake me,oh my darling
You made that promise as a bride
Do not forsake me ,oh my darling
All tho' you're grievin'
don't think of leaving
Now that I need you be my side
Wat,wait along
