Here Lies Love - Sammy Davis, Jr., Jr., Sammy Davis

Night winds, cold and melancholy

Wave a blue finale for my tragedy

Life’s a misery meant only for me

While I linger, weary, 'neath a willow tree

Right here our romance was started

Here again we parted when I set you free

All my thoughts are jumbled, everything is blurred

All the world has crumbled, shattered by word

The end has come, my heart is numb

'Twas like a bolt from the blue above

I can’t believe it but you’re gone, darling

And here lies love

The sky is dark and I hear a lark

He sounds as sad as a mournful dove

The dew appears like the tears of dawn, darling

And here lies love

All my dreams lost beyond recall

Dreams of spring blasted by the fall

You gave lips, you gave arms

I gave all

I ought to cry, my eyes are dry

There’s only one thing I’m conscious of

I only know that I can’t go on, darling

For here lies love

All my dreams lost beyond recall

Dreams of spring blasted in the fall

You gave lips, you gave arms

I gave all

I ought to cry, my eyes are dry

There’s only one thing I’m conscious of

I only know that I can’t go on, darling

For here lies love
