Dailey and Vincent - Close By lyrics

You've gone so far away my darlin' Each time I think of you I cry I press your picture to my bosom Then I feel that you're close by Years have pa**ed, you've not returned dear Now they say that you have died But your soul will live forever Now I know you'll be close by I saw you last while you were leaving The tears from you I try to hide You took me in your arms and said dear Your memory I'll keep close by They buried you in a lonely graveyard And a spot they left beside There we'll sleep 'til Jesus calls us So that we can be close by
