Broken Engagement Lyrics

They were standing by a window

As the night winds kissed her cheek

And he'd waited long in silence

Waited long for her to speak

Till at last she murmured sadly

As she raised her tearful life

With a look so full of anguish

That had filled him with surprise

I have promised you my darling

So that I may tell you all

Hear those vows by angels

Drifted are forever past recall

For they say you love another

That you never did love me

If those cruel words are true

Dear, I'll forever set you free

Yes, it's true he answered hostly

Through by yonder stars above

To deceive I nearly tended

When I told you of my love

Fare thee well, he added gently

As he sees her outstretched hands

Covered in with burning kissed

Whispering God will understand

God in mercy sent an angel

To relive her from all care

For he knew the way what sorrow was

Far more than she could bear

She was taken home to heaven

To the mansions of the bless

Where the sad heart knows no aching

And the weary are at rest
