Ralph Stanley
This Weary Heart You Stole Away
I wait for you dear all night long
It seems you never do get home
I fall asleep at the break of day
Just to drive these awful blues away
Wake up sweetheart the night has passed
You slept your troubles all away
Get ready now to love again
This weary heart you stole away
I heard you crying in your sleep
You said you found somebody new
So I'll live on and just pretend
I could never love no one but you
How can you treat me like you do
You know I've never done you wrong
My heart will always worship you
But still each night I'm left alone
