Every night, when the sun goes down
Every night, when the sun goes down
Every night, when the sun goes down
Hang my head, and mournful cry:
You're gone!
You're gone!
My own true love, you're gone!

Our love was new on that yesterday;
Our love was true on that yesterday;
The love we knew on that yesterday
Has grown cold; you're gone away

Now I'm alone in this empty town;
I'm so alone in this dreary town
And I call for my own true love
Every night, when the sun goes down:
You're gone!
You're gone!
My own true love, you're gone!
My own true love, you're gone!
