E E They were standing by the window B7 E As the breeze did kiss her cheek A E He had waited long in silence B7 E Waited long for her to speak E Then at last she whispered softly B7 E As she raised those tear-stained eyes A E With a look so full of anguish B7 E That it filled him with surprise E Oh, they say, you love another B7 E That you never did love me A E If those words be true, my Darling B7 E I'll forever set you free E E Oh, they're true, my Dear, he answered B7 E By the shining stars above A E When they told you my intention B7 E There they told you of my love E Goodbye Darling, I must leave you B7 E As she grasped those outstretched hands A E Covered them with burning kisses B7 E Saying, God will understand E He was standing by her casket B7 E As he looked upon her face A E Then he realized that he loved her B7 E And no one could take her place
