You Tied A Love Knot In My Heart

 

You tied a love knot in my heart dear

When you said you'd be my bride

Oh how well I remember

As we strolled side by side

 

Leaves were falling all around us

Roses withered on the ground

You tied a love knot in my heart dear

That can never be unwound

 

The only thing that I have left now

Is this little string I've found

With a little love knot in it

That she held tight in her hand

 

As I stood there by your bedside

As I looked into your eyes

You tied a love knot in my heart dear

That can never be untied

 

There's a heart tonight that's lonely

There's a heart tonight that's sad

For God has took you from me

The best pal I ever had

 

She's gone to sing up in heaven

God needed her there by His side

You tied a love knot in my heart dear

That can never be untied
