Oh have you seen my dear companion    For he was all this world to me    I hear he's gone to come far country    And that he cares no more for me    I wish I were a swallow flying    I'd fly to a high and lonesome place    I'd join the wild birds in their crying    Thinking of you and your sweet face       Oh have you seen my dear companion    For he was all this world to me    But now the stars have turned against me    And he cares no more for me       Oh when the dark is on the mountain    And all the world has gone to sleep    I will go down to the cold waters    And there I'll lay me down and weep       Oh have you seen my dear companion    For he was all this world to me
