Accompaniment track:


Lyrics

All my life is empty, Since I went away
Skies don’t seem to be so clear
May some angel sentry, Guard you while I stray
And fate be kind to join us some sweet day

Refrain
Oh, How I want you, Dear old pal of mine
Each night and day I pray you’re always mine
Sweetheart may God bless you, Angel hands caress you
While sweet dreams rest you, Dear old pal of mine

2. Dearie I’m so lonely, How I miss your smile
And your tender loving way
I just want you only, want you all the while
May God decree I have you back some day
