Frankie Lane, High Noon
.
Do not forsake me, oh, my darlin',
On this our wedding,
day.
.
Do not forsake me, oh, my darlin',
Wait; wait alone.
.
I do not know what fate awaits me.
.
I only know I must be brave.
an I must face a man who hates me,
.
Or lie a coward, a craven coward;
Or lie a coward in my grave
.
.
Oh, to be torn 'twixt love an' duty.
S'posin' I lose my fair-haired beauty.
Look at that big hand move along,
Nearing high noon.
.
He made a vow while in state prison:
Vowed it would be my life for his an',
I'm not afraid of death but,
oh,
what will I do, If you leave me?
.
Do not forsake me, oh, my darlin':
You made that promise as a bride...
Do not forsake me, oh, my darlin'
.
Although you're grievin', don't think of leavin',
Now that I need you by my side.
.
Wait along.., (Wait along.)
Wait along, Wait along...
.
(Wait along, wait along,
wait along, wait along.)
