Grave in the valley



    There's grave in the bend of the valley
    Here the shadows sweep over so still
    Here my darling is sleeping so peaceful
    In a gave at the foot of the hill



On the night when I'm lonely and thinking
Of my sweet heart who is now gone away
I go back to the place where she's sleeping
I'm just waiting to see her some day



 * Refrain



God gave us the joy that we wished for
Just a few days together we'll be
Then he carried her to Heaven's bright portal
There where she will be waiting for me



 * Refrain



For I often go back to the valley
Where the willows weep over her head
There to be just once more with my darling
By her side tho' I know she is dead



 * Refrain
