Once I Had a Sweetheart

Singer - Joan Baez

Once I had a sweetheart and now I have none
Once I had a sweetheart and now I have none
He's gone and leave me, he's gone and leave me
He's gone and leave me to sorrow and moan

Last night in sweet slumber I dreamed I did see
Last night in sweet slumber I dreamed I did see
My own precious jewel sat smiling by me
My own precious jewel sat smiling by me

And when I awakened I found it not so
And when I awakened I found it not so
My eyes like some fountains with tears overflow
My eyes like some fountains with tears overflow

I'll venture through England, through France and through Spain
I'll venture through England, through France and through Spain
All my life I will venture the watery main
All my life I will venture the watery main

Once I had a sweetheart and now I have none
Once I had a sweetheart, now I have none
He's gone and leave me, he's gone and leave me
He's gone and leave me to sorrow and moan
