Just Across The Bridge Of Gold
Hank Snow Written & Recorded by Hank Snow As the twilight shadows deepen All alone in tears I'm kneeling Where the weeping willow waves, O'er my sweetheart's lonely grave. I am asking God's forgiveness, For you're waiting there I know, Out beyond that blue horizon Just across the bridge of gold. I regret those words I've spoken Every yesterday of tears That I caused you little darling As we wandered through the years If I'd only read your letter Saying you were in despair That your weary heart was broken And in pain was lying there. I tonight would not be weeping O'er the roses on your grave. But instead dear I'd be happy And this sorrow I'd have saved. If I only would have listened When you told me not to stray But I said I loved another Left you there and went away. Now my life is sad and lonely Down life's path I trudge along But I'll meet you up in heaven When from this old world I've gone. CHORUS |
