Once I Had a Sweetheart

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Once I had a sweetheart but now I have none Once I had a sweetheart but now I have none She's gone and left me, gone and left me Gone and she's left me in sorrow to mourn [Verse 2] Last night in sweet slumber I dreamt I did see Last night in sweet slumber I dreamt I did see My own darling jewel, my own darling jewel My own darling jewel there smiling at me [Verse 3] But when I awakened and found it not so When I awakened and found it not so My eyes like some fountains, my еyes like some fountains My еyes like some fountains with tears they did flow [Instrumental Break] [Verse 4] I'll venture through England, through France and through Spain I'll venture through England, through France and through Spain My life I will venture, my life I will venture My life I will venture on the watery main [Verse 5] I'll set sails of silver and steer towards the sun I'll set sails of silver and steer towards the sun And my false love will weep, my false love will weep My false love will weep after I am gone [Outro] Once I had a sweetheart but now I have none Once I had a sweetheart but now I have none
