The Louvin Brothers - Broken Engagement

Tekst piosenki:

They were standing by a window
on the night he kissed her cheek
He had waited long in silence
waited long for her to speak

When at last she whispered softly
as the cool breeze kissed her cheek
She had waited long to tell him
what they told her he has said

Oh they say you love another
that you never did love me
If these words be true my darling
I'll forever set you free

They are truly part the answer
as the shining stars above
When they told you my intention
then they told you of love

He turned deathly pale and angry
left her standing by the gate
Sent a message to her sister
but the message came to late

God in heaven sent an angel
to relieve her aching pain
She went drifting off to heaven
on an angel's snow white wing

He was standing by her casket
as he looked upon her face
Then he realized that he loved her
and no one could take her place
