Lyrics:

Will I never see again

The smiling faces of my friends

Could it be they've gone completely

And though thoughts will linger

Sweetly in my heart



May I hear once more

The bird calls my name

May I be permitted just one friend

To share my game



The one who doesn't give a damn

For what I seem to be

And really cares for what I am and

What's within my heart



I believe the sun will shine

And I know that given time

The leaves will blow tumble and

Cry upon the autumn stone below



And my heart grows tired each day

As the sun grow cold

Weary uninspired each day

Til the story is told



You gave your love to one

Who only wants

What you seem to be

And doesn't really care for you or

What's within your heart



On my grave lay one black rose

Do this for me but don't suppose

Because I'm gone, my soul is dead

For I'll be here in spirit

And our love once more



There must be a heart somewhere

In need of the love I have

That will reach out in sincerety and

Take my life in hand



Then I'll know it's not some one

Who wants just what I seem to be

The one who cares

For what I am and

What's within my heart



What's within my heart ...
