It`s mighty dark for me to travel
For my sweetheart she is gone
The road is rough and filled with gravel
But I must journey on and on.
To me she was a little angel
Sent down to me from God above
T`was on the day that I first met her
That I told her of her love.
Many a night we`d stroll together
Talking of our love so fair
My love for her will never vanish
For I know I`ll meet her there.
Traveling down this lonesome highway
Thinking of my love that`s gone
Knowing soon we`ll be together
She`s the only love I`ve known.
