Have you forgotten me my dear

The judge said I must pay the cost

I never knew how much I lost

Chorus:

Until they sent me far away

Where each minute seemed a day

But maybe someday I’ll be free

Will you be waiting there for me

I’m in this cell because of you

The crime I did you told me to

My jealous heart just could not stand

To see you with another man

Chorus:

Until they sent me far away…

I hope someday that you will learn

When broken hearted you’ll return

But listen darlin please don’t wait

For maybe then will be too late

Chorus:

Until they sent me far away…
