If you should ever forsake me my love I would pray Take me my maker up in heaven where white angels stay Cause I could never go on living without you this way If we are to part I’d rather you take me today

No no I’ll never forsake you I’ll always be true And we’ll be happy together because I love you And when I think of us parting sweetheart it runs through my head If we cant be happy together my love I would rather be dead
