Once I Had a Sweetheart

[Verse 1]
Once I had a sweetheart but now I have none
Once I had a sweetheart but now I have none
She's gone and left me, gone and left me
Gone and she's left me in sorrow to mourn

[Verse 2]
Last night in sweet slumber I dreamt I did see
Last night in sweet slumber I dreamt I did see
My own darling jewel, my own darling jewel
My own darling jewel there smiling at me

[Verse 3]
But when I awakened and found it not so
When I awakened and found it not so
My eyes like some fountains, my еyes like some fountains
My еyes like some fountains with tears they did flow

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 4]
I'll venture through England, through France and through Spain
I'll venture through England, through France and through Spain
My life I will venture, my life I will venture
My life I will venture on the watery main

[Verse 5]
I'll set sails of silver and steer towards the sun
I'll set sails of silver and steer towards the sun
And my false love will weep, my false love will weep
My false love will weep after I am gone

[Outro]
Once I had a sweetheart but now I have none
Once I had a sweetheart but now I have none
