She walked to his car from the church house   Where he sat waiting in the night   And her hands trembled on her Bible   As she held on firmly to the right      Oh, you're beggin' me to go out drinkin'   But drinkin' only adds to my pain   I love you sweetheart, I love you   But we won't ever meet again      Oh, I love you sweetheart, I love you   And your tears keep addin' to my pain   I love you sweetheart, I love you   But we won't ever meet again      Oh, my heart is almost broken   And then she let go of his hand   I love you sweetheart, I love you   But we won't ever meet again      You've been in the arms of another   And one who says she is my friend   You've kissed her and held her and loved her   And taken her places that we've been      Oh, my heart is almost broken   And then she let go of his hand   I love you sweetheart, I love you   But we won't ever meet again      Oh, I love you sweetheart, I love you   But drinkin' only adds to my pain   I love you sweetheart, I love you   But we won't ever meet again      Oh, my heart is almost broken   And your tears only add to my pain   I love you sweetheart, I love you   But we won't ever meet again
