The Tie That Binds - Jim Reeves (吉姆·里夫斯)

In a room so lonely and cheerless

Sits a woman all alone

By her a cradle stands empty

And by it she sobs and she moans

My husband he no longer loves me

His love and our dear baby died

I'll leave him at home forever

And out in this old world abide

She packed baby's things in the bundle

While the tears rolled down her cheeks

I never no never would leave him

If ever a kind word he'd speak

Just then the door softly was opened

A man took the bundle away

He lay the things out on the table

And softly to her he did say

One little stockin' for you dear

One little blue shoe is for me

The baby's wrap and its smallest cap

We'll keep in memory

One lock of hair is for you dear

See how the golden curl shines

We'll keep a smile while she sleeps for

She is the tie that binds
