Oh, God, I'll Miss Her

Oh, God, I’ll Miss Her

 

           A feeling of sadness

                       surges through my heart,

           For soon I’ll be leaving

                       alone my sweetheart.

           We have never been

                       a moment apart.

           And I’m really sorry

                       I’ll have to say good-bye.

                                   Oh, God, don’t let me cry!

 

           Deep in her heart

                       memories I will leave her.

           Those happy years

                       her mind will entertain.

           Those happy times

                       that we have spent together,

           Deep in her heart

                       I hope they will remain.

 

           I feel such great sorrow

                       because good-bye I’ll say.

           But someone is calling

                       and I can’t say ”No”.

           I wish I could take her

                       wherever I go.

           But I know I cannot.

                       She will just have to stay.

                                   Oh, God, I’ll miss her!

 

           How soon I’ll be leaving,

                       I just cannot say.

           But I will be ready,

                       although I want to stay.

           My only regret

                       is leaving her behind.

           But I know He will send her

                       to join me there some day.

                                   Oh, God, with her be kind!
