Broken Engagement

They were standing in the moonlight

When he kissed his love good-bye

He had broken their engagement

And she asked the reason why

I have someone else my darling

And she means the world to me

That is why I'm asking of you

Forgive me please and set me free

Then she whispered oh so sadly

As the tears they filled her eyes

And his heart was full of pity

For he took her by surprise

If it's true you love another

Better dear than you love me

Dear I want you to be happy

I'll forever set you free

Thou you leave me for another

I hope we'll meet again someday

In that far off home up yonder

There our love won't end this way
