connie francis - high noon lyrics
this is the story of two men
one, an ex-convict
the other, a man of honour
the ex-convict vowed while in prison
to kill the man of honour
“i can’t be a coward”
he says to his fair-haired beauty
do not forsake me, oh my darlin’
on this our wedding day
do not forsake me, oh my darlin’
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
oh, to be torn ‘twixt love and duty
s’posin’ i lose my fair-haired beauty
look at that big hand move along
nearin’ high noon
he made a vow while in state’s prison
vowed it would be my life or his ‘n
i’m not a afraid of death, but oh
what will i do if you leave me
do not forsake me, oh my darlin’
you made that promise as a bride
do not forsake me, oh my darlin’
although you’re grieving
don’t think of leaving
now that i need you by my side
