Dearest Darling [Alternate Take] Lyrics
Dearest darling
Dearest darling
Dearest darling
Don't you know
The lord above
Created you
Just for me to love
Picked you out
From all the rest
Because he knew I loved you best
Dearest darling
Dearest darling
Dearest darling, take my hand, take my hand
I once had a heart
So trill and true
But now it's gone
From me to you
Take care of it
Like I have done
For you have two hearts
And I have none
Dearest darling
Dearest darling
Dearest, yeah yeah, dearest, yeah yeah
Dearest, yeah yeah, dearest, yeah yeah
Darling, yeah yeah, darling, yeah yeah
If I get to heaven
Before you do
I'll try to make a hole
And pull you through
Woah, dearest, dearest, dearest
If I go to heaven
And you not there
I'm gonna write your name
On the heavenly stair
If you aren't there
By turn of day
Then I know baby
You know the way
Woah, dearest, dearest, dearest
Oh sweet baby, oh sweet baby, oh, oh, oh
Dearest darling
Dearest darling
The lord above
Created you
Just for me to love
From all the rest
Because he knew I loved you best
Dearest darling
Dearest darling, take my hand, take my hand
So trill and true
But now it's gone
From me to you
Like I have done
For you have two hearts
And I have none
Dearest darling
Dearest, yeah yeah, dearest, yeah yeah
Dearest, yeah yeah, dearest, yeah yeah
Darling, yeah yeah, darling, yeah yeah
Before you do
I'll try to make a hole
And pull you through
And you not there
I'm gonna write your name
On the heavenly stair
By turn of day
Then I know baby
You know the way
Oh sweet baby, oh sweet baby, oh, oh, oh
