Here Lies Love

Here Lies Love - Sammy Davis Jr./Joseph Gershenson's Orchestra/Dave Cavanaugh And His Orchestra

The end has come, my heart is numb

It was like a volt from the blue above

I can't believe it but you're gone, darling

And here lies love

The sky is dark and I hear a lark

He sounds as sad as a mournful dove

The dew appears like the tears of dawn

Darling, for here lies love

All my dream's lost beyond recall

Dreams of spring blessed within the fall

You gave lips, you gave arms, I gave all

I ought to cry, my eyes are dry

There's only one thing I'm conscious of

I only know that I can't go on

Darling, here lies love

I ought to cry, my eyes are dry

There's only one thing I'm conscious of

I only know that I can't go on

Darling, for here lies love

Here lies love
