Why There's A Tear In My Eye - The Carter Family (卡特家族)[00:00:00]

I once loved a beautiful maiden[00:00:07]

As fair as the blue skies above[00:00:11]

And each night as we wandered together[00:00:16]

The moon seemed to smile on our love[00:00:21]

We vowed to be true to each other[00:00:25]

That nothing could cause us to part[00:00:30]

But we never once dreamed that the future[00:00:34]

Held only a broken heart[00:00:39]

Then there came the night when we parted[00:00:43]

We quarreled as all sweethearts do[00:00:48]

And I learned what it was to be jealous[00:00:52]

When they told me her love was untrue[00:00:57]

She told me she had always been faithful[00:01:01]

She swore that her love could not die[00:01:06]

And then when I did not believe her[00:01:10]

She kissed me and told me goodbye[00:01:15]

Oh-de-lay-ee-oh de-lay-ee yo-de-lay-ee[00:01:20]

I found I had falsely accused her[00:01:35]

And went back to make her my bride[00:01:40]

And there in the door stood her mother[00:01:45]

She told me my sweetheart had died[00:01:49]

I went in and knelt down beside her[00:01:54]

And there in the hush of that room[00:01:58]

I prayed that my maker would take me[00:02:03]

And send my soul down to its doom[00:02:07]

So now I have told you the reason[00:02:12]

There's always a tear in my eye[00:02:17]

Through long weary years I've repented[00:02:21]

But I'm longing to lay down and die[00:02:26]

And I wonder if I'll be forgiven[00:02:30]

When I face the master someday[00:02:35]

And I wonder if I'll see my sweetheart[00:02:40]

On that beautiful shore far away[00:02:44]

Oh-de-lay-ee-oh de-lay-ee yo-de-lay-ee[00:02:49]
