seth lakeman - portrait of my wife lyrics

Loading...

in vain i try to dry a tear
which falls down from my eyes
it makes me think of the one i love
who in the cold grave lies

my heart is very sad i vow
on thing cheers me through my life
the only merit i have left
the portrait of my wife

roll away those lonely days
roll from up above
raise your gl-ss
to the one you love
roll away those lonely days
roll from up above
raise your gl-ss
to the one you love

she gave it with the parting kiss
she gave it with a sigh
and said dear husband do take this
before i say goodbye
and let me place it round your neck
while i’ve got one breath of life
and i hope you’ll never once forget
this portrait of your wife

roll away those lonely days
roll from up above
raise your gl-ss
to the one you love
roll away those empty days
roll from up above
raise your gl-ss
to the one you love

i see her in my dreams at night
i think of her by day
to me she was an angel bright
but now she’s far away
i wear her portrait near my heart
i’ll treasure it through life
and with it i will never part
his portrait of my wife

roll away those lonely days
roll from up above
raise your gl-ss
to the one you love
roll away those hollow days
roll from up above
raise your gl-ss
to the one you love
